About

Plastics are ubiquitous items in modern metropolises and are used in large quantities in industrial products. Among the similar products and monotonous life, the artists         explore society and human with restless. This restless comes from worries about losing the artists' independent with the monotony. The plastic capsule is concentrated and is not medicine for treating panic, but the epitome of artists        struggling and resisting in the city. This exhibition hopes to show the passion and worry about urban life and reflect the artists’ exploration in modern cities.

The artists create works in this exhibition by observing and thinking about common or curious phenomena in modern cities. The artist explores the expression of the material, the observation of audiences and self. Meanwhile, the topics of the works include the cultural exchanges between east and west, the relationship of society and technology, animals and human being, and so on. By giving a new definition to everyday objects, plastic has a new artistic value. The life in a plastic city is not beautiful, but lonely. However, the artists found a unique sense of self here.
