Shuling Guo
The First Day of the Lunar Month-4,
2025
“Shuling Guo's work emerges from personal memories of specific moments; holding her grandmother's hand as she passed away, giving birth, and cradling her newborn daughter. At the same time, they address broader themes of transformation and regeneration, fragility and resilience. Minimal, soft and colorful, her visual language is deeply shaped by her upbringing in Chaosan, China, and her more recent experiences living in the United States.
Guo's work draws from a diverse array of sources: the vivid imagery or temple murals and statues, known for their symmetrical structures, bold colors and intricate narratives, the layered symbolism of medieval religious iconography, and Emily Dickinson's Herbarium, a botanical collection she compiled during her time at Amherst Academy. The dried flowers preserved by Dickinson, with their resemblance to wounded and aging bodies, evoke a sense of decay and renewal that resonates deeply with her work. Together, these influences reflect cycles of beauty, decline, and rebirth, informing Guo's exploration of the body and self as vessels of both vulnerability and strength, and reflecting cycles of life and death.”
