Qiu Xiaofei is a Chinese painter working primarily in oil on canvas, creating large-scale figurative compositions that explore themes of labor, displacement, and social hierarchy in contemporary China. His work combines documentary realism with expressionistic mark-making, often depicting construction workers, migrants, and figures in states of vulnerability or transition. Represented by Hauser & Wirth, his paintings are characterized by a densely layered surface and muted color palette that creates psychological depth alongside formal complexity.
