About Mark

Mark Xu ( b.2002, China ) Artist-curator working across installation and exhibition contexts, focusing on how spatial organisation and display strategies shape audience behaviour.

His practice explores the relationship between objects, viewers, and systems of presentation, often engaging with participation, perception, and institutional frameworks.

He has participated in international commercial exhibitions and developed independent curatorial projects, with hands-on experience in installation, audience interaction, and exhibition operations.

Currently based in London, he is studying BA (Hons) Fine Art (Sculpture) at the University of the Arts London (UAL).

Personal background

Mark Xu began his artistic formation through painting, developing a sustained engagement with visual practice from an early stage.

His departure from the Chinese art examination system marked a decisive shift, driven by a critical stance towards its standardised modes of evaluation and their limitations in addressing the complexity of artistic practice.

He subsequently relocated to the UK to pursue sculpture, where his work expands into installation and exhibition-based contexts, focusing on spatial organisation, perception, and the conditions under which art is encountered.
