Shuai Mei graduated in 1994 from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. Her figures are lean and elegant, composed in perfect posture, evoking a nostalgic and idealized memory of days yonder.
Shuai Mei’s craftsmanship, with egg tempera on canvas, is sentimental and sensitive; her desire to remember the contradictions of memory imbues her scenes with melancholic blitheness.
