Installation progress and detail

“Written Emotion” is a social practice project that calls partitioner to write and transfer emotion on to an installation wall art.

Such project happens in Rose-colored Glasse, a curatorial project I did 2019 at Wuhan.

What encourages the artists to keep creating? One exhibition with impulse does not constitute a complete success for the artist. What inspires artists keep creating is their passion for art. Our exhibition, Rose-colored Glasses, includes three elements: firstly, it gathers ten young contemporary artists from Wuhan who expresses their passion and love through visual art. Secondly, all of the artworks showcased in this exhibition are made by female artists. Still, they do not necessarily focus on feminism or female perspectives, which clears up the general confusion and misunderstanding of “gender” in contemporary art. Finally, this exhibition is titled Rose-colored Glasses. Through the two perspectives through “gender” and “identity,” the exhibition explores a variety of identities in contemporary art creation. As mentioned above, since we want to eliminate binary-genders’ antagonism issues, we should also stop the “female perspective.” In contemporary art, what we emphasize is the diversity of gender and self-identity. The participating artists play many roles in life: daughters, mothers, teachers, wives, etc. However, in this exhibition, they represent a single role: a contemporary artist.
