Located in the T.CUP space of Xihai 48 Cultural and Creative Park, there is a mini art museum "One Person View", which links modern tea drinks with Chinese contemporary art, and in this exhibition space of less than 5 square meters, let art intervene in daily life and let aesthetics enhance life. The first exhibition held here on April 29 selected Huang Yongxing, a young ceramicist from Dehua, and his white porcelain work "Gui".
Through his works, Huang Yongxing thinks about the different shaping of "shape" in tradition and contemporary art. His "Gui" is composed of a series of works, presenting the process of deconstruction and reconstruction of the traditional sculpture "shape" of Dehua white porcelain, from "nothing" to "being", and from "being" to "nothing". "Form" in thinking from abstraction to concreteness, becoming confusing and plausible. In shaping the "shape", the artist does not fall into a simple imitation of tradition or a new creation after breaking away from tradition, but wanders in a "middle" state between thematic painting and sculpture. This creative concept of breakthrough innovation, deconstruction and reconstruction on the basis of traditional Chinese culture coincides with the concept of T.CUP contemporary innovative tea drinking "simplifying complexity".
It is reported that the exhibition will last until the end of July. In the overall exhibition design, the curator is also unique, using the intervention of space and video to present the unique visual effect of the work, bringing the audience a completely different viewing experience from other large art museums. It is expected that artists and audiences can observe art, observe life, and see themselves through works in such a unique space.
"Shape" is the starting point and end of the creation of artists and designers, shape shaping is the embodiment process of their creative concept, and thinking and shaping "shape" is the ultimate pursuit of art and design. The 2022 "One-Man View" series of exhibitions will take "Shape and Thought" as the theme, connecting several contemporary young artists and their works, presenting their creations and reflections in form.
