The Solidification Crisis' Wall Mirror by Cometabolism Studio

About the Item

Under a high social division of labor, modern human life is far removed from violent hunting for survival. Actually, it is not only the tools of hunting that are unfamiliar to most people in the city, but also the tools of production and life, and we live in a technologically constructed safe environment without any control over our survival. Considered in this light, a dangerous and frightening trap also has a lovely and reassuring aspect, and on this basis the presence of the mirror allows the viewer to reflect on his or her own feelings in this superimposed state of danger and safety. About the Artist: Cometabolism Studio is a design studio based in Shanghai, founded by Zhang Ning and Yang Yafei. Zhang Ning graduated from the designer maker program at Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London. The direction of her work explores the entangled relationship between objects and human behavior. Yang Yafei graduated from the Department of Oil Painting of Sichuan Fine Arts Institute and Furniture Design at Central Academy of Fine Arts China. His works often use industrial readymades to blur the definition of objects and play with the idea of power of public space, attempting to derive industrial production relations through ready-made industrial components. The duo have collaborated on several art and design projects as long-time friends and expect to rethink the creative process under the ruins of the post-industrial heritage. In 2020, they established Cometabolism Studio to explore the possibility of reactivating mass-produced industrial metabolites such as industrial components and blurring their function in space, allowing art to intervene in everyday space. At the same time, through digital generation and other technologies, they explore undefined art objects that can blur the border between the real and the virtual.
