Zhang Xinyuan, born in Wuhan, Hubei Province, graduated from the Central Academy of Drama in 2012, BA of
performance. In 2008, her self-made images ignited online communities in China. Heavy-eyebrowed and flame-lipped,
but also chaste and ethereal, her images are both polarized and harmonious, no wonder they received so explosive
acclaiming and spreading.
From then on, Zhang Xinyuan becomes a fashion icon and favored by various media and industries, her images even
initiated a tide of retro-styling in the youths of China. Instead of stopping on that, Miss Zhang keeps on sharpening her
art language by the grindstones of her unique aesthetic taste, say-no-to-vulgarity attitude, and oriental wisdom. With the
love to public art, Miss Zhang has crossover-cooperated with various artists and stylists, and become a rising star of
arts, which made her the cover star of I-D, a famous British fashion magazine, in Mar.2012. The next month,Apr.2012,
her high-profile photo album Girlfriend On The Cliff became the top one seller in the Amazon list of photographic books,
and one of the best-sellers of Motie Company, who has published this book. Sold out in various online shopping sites,
Dream Raider studio and Motie Company printed other batches of copies, all of which had been sold out now.
