Pang Hailong was born in Heilongjiang in 1974. He graduated from the School of Art at Harbin Normal University in 1998 and later from the Academy of Arts & Design, Tsinghua University. He currently lives and works in Shanghai. His creative practice spans sculpture, installation, painting, and curating. In addition, he founded the art platform ZHAISHENGJI® (宅生记) in 2020, through which he curates experimental projects.
With a diverse background that includes working as a journalist and establishing a business before returning to artistic creation in 2010, Pang’s work focuses on reality and social engagement through art. He is skilled at transforming the physical properties of materials to intervene in the viewer's perceptual field, presenting an effortlessly intriguing vision that invites the audience to perceive what is “perceivable” and overlook what is destined to be “overlooked.” Through this approach, his work transcends mere artistic expression and takes on broader humanistic significance.
His solo exhibitions include: Invisible Force, Leo Gallery, Shanghai(2025)；Invisible Force, SAILING SPACE, Shanghai(2020); Over the Landscape Gardens, Zhujiajiao Art Project, Shanghai(2018); Grey • Dust, 99 Creative Center, Fine Arts College of Shanghai University, Shaghai(2011).
