Amos Jin (b. 2002) is a multidisciplinary artist born in Suzhou, China, currently based in New York. 

Jin’s paintings are self-contained spatial systems rather than depictions of imagined places.  Governed by an internal logic that remains just beyond comprehension, the works examine how a thought or memory is resembled, letting the meaning emerge through proximity, interruption, repetition, and scale. Inspired by optical phenomena such as iridescence, refraction, oxidation, and atmospheric light, Jin treats color as a material condition rather than a descriptive one. Translucent surfaces and shifting chromatic edges appear as evidence of physical processes unfolding within the image. Organic and geometric elements continuously exchange roles, collapsing distinctions between biological growth and constructed space.

The paintings occupy a threshold between observation and invention, where familiar objects appear detached from their conventional function and become artifacts of an unknown system. Instead of resolving into symbolic narratives, they invite viewers to navigate environments whose coherence is sensed before it is understood.

They currently hold an BFA from Pratt Institute.
