Cecilia Aisin-Gioro: Royal Descendant Bridging Cultures with Feng Shui Art

Cecilia Aisin-Gioro, also known as Aixinjueluo Hengqin, represents the last royal lineage of China. As a member of the Heng generation in the Aisin-Gioro family and the great-niece of Puyi, the last emperor of China, her heritage has profoundly shaped her life. Symbolism holds paramount significance in Chinese court painting, epitomizing imperial reverence, a tradition that deeply influences Cecilia’s work. During the Cultural Revolution, her family suffered severely due to their royal ties, leading to social ostracism. For Cecilia Aisin-Gioro, painting provides an essential outlet, a sentiment shared by many descendants of the Aisin-Gioro family.
