Abstract | Xinan Yang's research analyses case studies of prominent artists who successfully incorporate their own life stories and subjective perspectives into their practices. By drawing on experiences of personal dislocation and the exploration of familial relationships as rich sources of creative inspiration, the study emphasises how painting has been employed to convey the emotional, psychological, and sociopolitical aspects of displacement. The analysis is structured around three core themes: the role of painting in examining family dynamics in relation to family photographs, the potential of painting and social media to foster cross-cultural dialogue and empathy, and the use of painting as a means of understanding cultural identity and preserving familial connections in the face of displacement. |
