Biographie et démarche
Démarche

"Les œuvres de Hua Jin évoquent l'idée de permanence et de changement. Elle s'intéresse particulièrement aux thèmes de la nature, du paysage et de la condition humaine en relation avec l'histoire.

Elle est connue pour sa série My Big Family [archive], projet toujours en cours, débuté à l'été 2010. Loin de ses racines, le projet est né de l'idée de reconstruire la généalogie de sa famille élargie. L’ensemble s’est avéré plus qu’un simple portrait familial, puisqu’il témoigne de la disparition progressive des familles traditionnelles composées de nombreux enfants dans la société chinoise contemporaine depuis l’instauration de la politique de l’enfant unique en 1978. Ce portrait multiple et éclaté prend une perspective documentaire autant familiale que sociale, où les points d’entrée dans la réalité urbaine ou rurale de la Chine contemporaine se démultiplient sans cesse."
