State of Inaction

Under the theme of repetition, Geng shows line drawings and collages in his exhibition i Tegnerforbundet . For Geng, repetition is the way to discover the basis of life and reality. By approaching art in this way, she finds that the repetitions have their own inherent system and discoveries. In the way Geng works, one can see traces of Tao philosophy's notions of inaction; by not controlling the result, she allows the works to develop naturally, which in turn allows the finished result to displace her own limitations in terms of understanding.

Jingxin Geng (b. 1975 in China) was educated in both China and Norway, and took her Master's at the Academy of Fine Arts in Oslo in 2008. Geng works in a variety of media, and her work has been shown in both Europe and China.
