Biography
Dino is an artist filmmaker based in London and Shanghai. His works engage with a confluence of memory, history, and identity. Using an autoethnographic framework to retrace the past, he approaches his practice as inherently research-oriented, gathering cumulative materials and archives from his family and where he grew up. Through grieving, contemplating, and reconciliation with the contradictory discourses of the past, he seeks heterochronic narratives that connect us to the field of socio-cultural history. Often taking the form of expanded cinema, his works move from a mode of thought and lyricism to a mode of resilience, stretching beyond the expanding landscape of archival imagery.
Dino received a BA degree in Fine Art (first class) from the Central Saint Martins in 2022 and an MFA degree (distinction) from the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford in 2023. His works have recently been shown in: Beijing International Short Film Festival; Shanghai International Short Week; Roseberry Road Studios, Bath; MOUart Gallery, Beijing; Gallery 4B103, Shanghai; Chelsea Marquee, London; The Bomb Factory Art Foundation, London; Christ Church College, Oxford.
