EVENT DESCRIPTION
A shrine is a place where people come to worship because it is connected with a religious/non-religious person or event. It often contains idols, relics, or objects associated with the figure being venerated. In contemporary practice, when the physical form of shrine shifts, it becomes an idealistic sanctuary to hold their domestic world. At the same time, how people look at the shrine is similar to how these artists look at their works, cautious, quiet, and sensible – through an inward lens. Similar to the structure of inner development and self-dialog. As Simone de Beauvoir said, one is not born a woman but becomes one. This exhibition term explores the ambiguity of females before, during, and, more importantly, after the complex duration of shaping.
Shrine served as a warm bed, gentle yet firmly carrying their world. These female artists, with gifted instincts, captured the vulnerable connection of tangible emotions through visual language.
Features five female artists, followed by Alina Birkner, Gretta Louw, Lorraine Ren (Jialin), Super Future Kid, and Yuchu Gao that deliver the theme with their unique perspective.
