About the Item

We are living in an age where everyone struggles to converge, where the definition of a good life is becoming flattened and monolithic, and where the images we receive of the good life turns out to be big houses with swimming pools. Through a suspended cubic block of water, the work shatters the calm and beautiful state of the pool, creating a metaphor for crisis.The substance of a real pool has been replaced with a reflective medium to assume a virtual state, while the distorted lines of the pool are not effects of real light, they all point to the complexity and danger of what we today consider to be a uniformly good life. 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.
