About us
( ) in the Mountain is an artist collective consisting of a group of friends who graduated from Dutch art academies. While facing the reality of our precarious situations as international emerging artists, they were brought up out of a need for a space that allowed for growth. Our place welcomes what is often omitted, hidden, or swiped away, giving ourselves and others a space for the quiet, for all that often does not make its way to the forefront, as well as an attempt to bring our art practices closer to our daily lives. We were established in August 2022, and are currently based at De Besturing, an artist studio complex in the Hague, the Netherlands.
Bing was born in Fujian, China. She focuses on personal storytelling, linking the past, present, memories and fantasy. Her work is a safe place for time and shape to be free, and for things to be seen as they are. All things come together as a specific narrative with her own warped, soft, and naked reality.
