Miao Xiaochun (Chinese: 缪晓春; pinyin: Miào Xiǎochūn, born 1964, Wuxi, Jiangsu, China) is an artist and photographer based in Beijing.
He is best known for his digital photographs, often assembled panoramas, of modern Chinese cityscapes. His signature element is the presence of "He", a figure in ancient Chinese costume. Other works include computer graphics installations such as The Last Judgement in Cyberspace, a 3D monochrome reworking of Michelangelo's The Last Judgment from the Sistine Chapel replacing every figure with a virtual model of Miao himself.
Xiaochun studied at Nanjing University, at the China Central Academy of Fine Arts and at the Kunsthochschule Kassel.
He has shown work internationally in many exhibitions including Between Past and Future at Haus der Kultur der Welt in Berlin, City of Dreams at the Red Mansion Foundation in London, Sightseeing at SCA Galleries in Sydney and The Last Judgement in Cyberspace at Walsh Gallery in Chicago.
He is represented by the Walsh Gallery in Chicago, the F2 Gallery in Beijing, and the Alexander Ochs Galleries in Berlin.
