In the new episode of WAS MIT KUNST, Johann König speaks with artist Jingge Dong, whose exhibition ENRAPTURED is currently on view at KÖNIG TELEGRAPHENAMT.

Born in Beijing, Dong now lives in Venice. Dong's art explores the interplay of Eastern and Western cultures, merging Chinese symbols with Western techniques. His work delves into the complexities of cultural identity, reflecting his journey of integration and personal exploration. Dong's works invite viewers to contemplate their own sense of self within an interconnected world. Through his unique artistic vision, he challenges traditional boundaries and fosters a dialogue that transcends geography and time.

In the podcast, König and Jingge Dong speak about his upbringing in China, why he decided to move and study in Italy, finding his visual language, and the works on view at KÖNIG TELEGRAPHENAMT.
