Human ( ) Non-human / performance
Artist Profile
Born in 1992, the artist draws from a unique perspective on the body cultivated through early experiences in ballet and street dance, as well as a background in clinical practice informed by Jungian analytical psychology, with a particular focus on recurring dreams and religious emotions. Her work centers on the encounters that emerge between the body and digital media, while also exploringinterests inastronomy, archaeology, and post humanism. She pays close attention to the ways in which transformations of the world become observable within various spatial and conceptual configurations. Rather than drawing boundaries between the digital and the analog, she seeks to merge them— working across a diverse range of medium including two-dimensional works, video installations, and physical performance to create interdisciplinary creation.

HUANG Wanling
Gong Yang Ren (Identity Shoppers)
Huang Wanling’s Gong Yang Ren (Identity Shoppers) series evolves from an imagination where religious imagery intersects with contemporary material culture. She begins with the Buddhist practice of devotees offering tributes to statues in search of spiritual entrustment, and transforms it into the passion and faith that modern consumers project onto brands. These Gong Yang Ren (Identity Shoppers) figures construct their identities and sense of value through the purchase of luxury goods and the pursuit of fashion. The “Arhats” depicted in her works are presented as guardians of brands—fashion adepts whose attire embodies the aesthetics and class structures of contemporary society. Further developing the concept of Gong Yang Ren (Identity Shoppers), Huang expands her practice into action painting. On site, she improvises images of Gong Yang Ren (Identity Shoppers), enacting the offering as a ritual gesture. This becomes a live performance involving flows of faith, gaze, and desire, in which the audience’s participation provides an opportunity to reconsider the relationship between art and devotion, material and spirit.

Torn and Rising
＜Torn and Rising>＞
By tearing traditional Korean paper, hanji, and piecing together its fragments, I give birth to a new form. The torn and reconnected hanji retains its unique texture and tones, rising again as a renewed presence. This act is also an attempt to gather and reconstruct fragments of memory.

Kentaro Sugi
Flower ceremony
Kentaro Sugi is a Japanese contemporary IKEBANA artist fromFukuoka, Kyushu Prefecture.
Performing actively both in Japan and abroad.
After studying traditional ikebana, Kentaro Sugi still continues to pursue his own and unique expression,
creating modern works from various perspectives and angles rather than the old-fashioned ikebana style.
Kentaro Sugi’s “Flower Introductions” live sessions last between one and two hours, during which you can see himself sculpting the flowers.
One after another, the flowers come to life, raditing brightness as if they were locked in a moment of life before vanishing into thin air.
His performance feels like it was an encounter with life.

Mayo Kobayashi
Human ( ) Non-human / performance
In this exhibition, I will present an improvisational performance piece from a series,
Human( )Non-human. This work focuses on the etymological dynamism of the word
“performance,” – per (thoroughly) + form (to shape) + ance (the act of).
Today, the hyper-accelerated development of technology is generating both societal and
individual benefits as well as threats. It signals a transformative period that is existential and
ontological in nature, anticipating a renewal of existing art and philosophy, and prompting a
renewed questioning of human existence. Still, the body remains the fundamental biological
basis of life for human beings. However, we may not truly know what the body is capable of.
When a performer engages in movement stripped of the meaning typically attached to action,
could this become a process that dismantles the ego and self, transcends individual detail, and
reorganizes the relationship between ‘human’ and ‘world’ in a new form—without losing what
we call ‘humanness’? Furthermore, can this decontextualized act, in the midst of a bustling
venue, provoke an introspective inquiry of the reality of “living” for both performer and
audience alike?
