Xiaoxiao Xu (1984), born in Qingtian in southeastern China, moved to the Netherlands during her teenage years. This transition and living half of her life amid a different culture has broadened her perspective. Her photography, which navigates the delicate line between documentary and autonomous work, reflects her dual perspective as both insider and outsider. Xu graduated cum laude from the Photo Academy Amsterdam and has since exhibited her work internationally in museums and festivals, with exhibitions at venues such as the Times Museum in Guangzhou, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum in Switzerland. Xu has been recognized with numerous awards and nominations, including the Lucie Photo Book Prize and the Jimei × Arles Women Photographers Award. Her books have received critical acclaim, with Shooting the Tiger being honored among the Best Dutch Book Designs in 2023, and Aeronautics in the Backyard selected as one of the best photo books by De Volkskrant and The Guardian.
