About the Author

Bing Xu is a visionary Chinese artist, designer, and author renowned for his innovative explorations at the intersection of language, culture, and visual communication. Born in Beijing and educated at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Xu has exhibited his work globally, from the Venice Biennale to the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His fascination with non-verbal expression stems from his experiences as a migrant worker and his observations of linguistic barriers in a globalized world. In his groundbreaking book 'Book from the Ground: from point to point (Mit Press)', Xu constructs a universal language using icons and symbols, challenging readers to navigate narratives without words. Through his multidisciplinary practice, Xu continues to provoke thought on how we connect across divides, blending art, design, and storytelling in profound ways.
