originality

1. My creative motivation is mainly driven by a strong sense of responsibility and mission.

2. My contemporary art creation is mainly to push China's contemporary art from the fringe to the mainstream, and I will actively use my own works to spread contemporary art in China.

3. Contemporary art is not creation, but emotion, not ego, but ego. Contemporary artistic techniques are not the main thing, but we should integrate ideas into works and express an idea in a form instead of creating a form.

4. My creation mainly runs through the theme of "the close relationship between man and nature", hoping to guide people to think about the living space of human beings and pay attention to ecological protection and the crisis of modern civilization.

Creative style

As a contemporary artist, Mr. Fu Xinmin's works are magnificent and unique, showing rich artistic imagination and appeal, which greatly opens up the pattern and realm of contemporary sculpture and painting art in China. Fu Xinmin's creation presents 19 and 20th century modernist artistic concepts and artistic concepts completely, richly and passionately with the brand-new artistic conception and diversified exploration of space modeling that modern sculpture art and space installation art can achieve. His artistic concept does not come from academic practice and rational cognition, but a kind of "tacit understanding" and "spiritual communication" close to intuition It is his natural artistic sensibility and understanding that makes him naturally favored by contemporary artistic inspiration in his creation.

In terms of artistic form, Fu Xinmin's works are very modern and avant-garde. However, he relies more on the elements and symbols of China traditional culture to carry those modern ideas that seem to belong to the "West"-this is the most valuable aspect of his creation. Although his works are full of strong modernity, they are by no means an empty imitation and blunt copy of western contemporary artistic concepts, but give fresh flesh and life to the concepts with China's rich and moist cultural connotations. At this point, Fu Xinmin is original, unique and irreplaceable.

From the perspective of theme implication, Mr. Fu Xinmin's works in different forms maintain consistency and integrity, that is, his worries about nature, human beings, modern scientific and technological civilization and commercial culture, his anxiety and criticism about the general alienation of nature from life, society and human spiritual world, his yearning for and return to the harmonious realm between man and nature in China traditional culture, his publicity of natural desire and vitality, and his eager call to get out of the predicament and yearn for a new life.
