WHAT
The new solo show by the NY and Beijing-based artist presents the rapid shifts in society and the displacement in our reality in the form of mixed-media works on canvas. She showcases a variety of evocative images such as cityscapes and extra-terrestrial entities to reference the invasion of technology in our everyday lives. The multi-media works present an alternate dimension revealed through a series of large-scale windows that line the gallery space.
WHY
It cannot be denied that technology has significantly changed our state of being, and Lin Jingjing captures these changes perfectly through her works. Riddled with a variety of familiar icons and locations that evoke a feeling of reminiscence and nostalgia within the viewer, the series of beautiful, brightly-coloured works are metaphors for the rapid changes in our world due to technology.
