Renqian Yang: Sounds of The Ephemeral, 2021

I am interested in the concept of binaries. My work addresses the unity and the contradiction of dichotomies: restriction and freedom; pessimism and optimism; complexity and simplicity; representation and abstraction; the human society and the natural world. At the same time, my work explores how an individual is related to nature, society, and oneself. My artwork reflects my experiences of migration and survival, while also exploring the conflict between the individual and society.

The physical and social tensions that individuals experience during periods of transition highlight human vulnerability, desire, desperation and lack of belonging. Anxiety shapes my clay. I create pieces that symbolize everyday emotions. In my art practice, I combine both traditional and nontraditional method. While primarily focusing on ceramic sculpture, my work also extends to installation, mix medium, drawing, painting and functional everyday objects.
