Spring is here, and inside UCCA there is a secret hanging garden alive with plants and trees, painted intensely black with Chinese ink. During the exhibition period the plants will continue to grow, and in a few weeks, green shoots will peek out of the black, giving evidence to the power of the natural world and its ability to renew.

In this continuation of our children’s ‘workshops with artists’ series, we invite exhibiting artist Jennifer Wen Ma to guide us through her hanging garden. This piece is an extension of her work that explores a contemporary approach to Chinese ink.

Jennifer Wen Ma is based mostly in the USA, however, her art works are linked closely to Chinese traditional art forms. She works in a variety of media, from video projections and sculptures, to drawings and interactive installations. She has produced a range of site-specific installation and video pieces in Asia and Europe.
