About
Ailin Xu (b. 2002, China) is an artist working across video, installation, photography, and graphic design. She holds a BA from the Central Academy of Fine Arts and an MA from the Royal College of Art. Her practice employs a poetic visual language to explore how technology intervenes in and reshapes human society and the natural environment, both in the present and in imagined futures.
Ashes of Speed is a response to this condition — a quiet resistance to the culture of acceleration. Rooted in both cultural observation and personal emotion, the work uses a slow, amplified audiovisual language to interrupt the rhythm of speed. It seeks to carve out a moment of contemplation amidst the non-stop momentum of modern life.
