Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork consists of a semi-transparent shower curtain installed in the gallery space. The curtain features a photographic image of a grassy field, creating an illusionistic effect that blurs the boundary between interior and exterior spaces. The minimalist design and use of simple geometric forms, such as the rectangular curtain and curved shower rod, suggest a focus on the conceptual and perceptual experience of the viewer. By repurposing a common household object as an art installation, the artist invites the audience to reconsider the nature of art and the relationship between functional and aesthetic elements in our environments. ...

Steph Huang

1990

Steph Huang's artistic practice centers around the integration of both local and foreign cultures, achieved through the repurposing of leftover materials and ready-made objects. This approach allows Huang to examine the surreal absurdity of collective human behavior and its impact on labor force and economy within a capitalist framework. By encompassing sculpture, installation, sound, and photography, Huang delves into the intricate relationship between history, global economics, and colonialism, highlighting the complexity of these themes. Through their autobiographical narrative storytelling method, exemplified by works such as Verbalise Vase (2022) and the Future Message (2021), Huang closely observes incidental details and explores the relationships between objects as well as their ties to eccentric moments in everyday life. The examination of the contemporary human experience is achieved through a close attention to incidental details and the exploration of the relationship between objects, as well as their connection to particular moments in daily life. Huang frequently employs analog photography to capture these moments, which serve as a starting point for new concepts conveyed through assemblage, resulting in sculptural works that possess a lyrical quality and invite the viewer to engage with them. ...
