JIALUN XIONG
ORIGINALLY FROM CHONGQING, CHINA, JIALUN GRAPHIC, DRAMATIC AND RIGOROUSLY INTENTIONAL, XIONG DESIGN OBJECTS PUSH THE LIMITS OF THEIR CONSTRUCTION, BALANCING POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SPACE AS A MEANS OF ENHANCED THEIR USERS' EXPERIENCE. FLUCTUATING BETWEEN IMMATERIALITY AND WEIGHT, XIONG'S FORMS INSPIRE CALM CONTEMPLATION AND GENTLE ATTENTION THAT KEEP THE INDIVIDUAL FIRMLY GROUNDED IN THE PRESENT.
HAVING STUDIED INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE AND FURNITURE DESIGN, XIONG'S APPROACH ARTISTICALLY BALANCES POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SPACE, ALWAYS CONSIDERING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OBJECTS AND SPATIAL VOLUMES. INSPIRED BY THE MOUNTAINOUS LANDSCAPE AND LARGE BUILDING ARCHITECTURE OF HER HOMETOWN IN CHONGQING AS WELL AS THE FUNCTIONAL MINIMALISM OF THE INTERNATIONAL STYLE OF ARCHITECTURE, XIONG CREATES SPATIAL ENVIRONMENTS AND FURNITURE WITH AN ABSTRACT GEOMETRIC INCLINATION THAT PRECISELY FRAMES THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE INSIDE. ALWAYS AIMING FOR HOLISTIC, INTEGRATED SPACES, XIONG'S WORK HAS BEEN FEATURED IN EXHIBITIONS AND PUBLICATIONS AROUND THE WORLD, WITH HIS DESIGNS FOR RESTAURANTS, COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL SPACES EMERGING THROUGHOUT LOS ANGELES AND BEYOND.
