Shinetana, of Mongol ethnicity, was born in East Uzemchin Banner of Shiliingo League, Inner Mongolia. She got a Bachelor’s Degree and a Master’s Degree from College of Art, Inner Mongolia University in 2006 and 2016 respectively. With painting, video and installation as main media, She is now based in Hohhot.
She grew up in a pastoral area, and in the process of leaving the grassland to study in the city, she paid attention to the grassland in the constant transformation of her identity, and ultimately returned to the multidimensional relationship born of the natural (grassland) standard, as a continuation of her body in her current nomadic existence. The items she uses are nomadic necessities, reflecting her modest original desire and its conflict with the homogenising check and balance of the modern consumer market. This is also intended to create a destination for "necessities," presenting a form of "Art as Necessity, Not Consumption."
