Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.
The artwork features a minimalist installation composed of geometric shapes and suspended copper wires. The dominant colors are black, grey, and copper, creating a stark, industrial atmosphere. The triangular shapes and clean lines suggest an emphasis on form and spatial relationships, while the copper wires add a delicate, almost precarious element to the piece.

Tant Yunshu Zhong (b. 1990, Wuhan) lives and works in Shanghai. Tant’s artistic practice focuses on the moments within everyday flow that can be used for resistance and questioning. These frozen moments may be simple, elegant, slightly comedic, or even absurd. There is no precise boundary in her assemblages; they are dispersed yet mutually constrained. She excels at linking, arranging, combining, and constructing multiple associations between different objects and words. She skillfully places the contradictions hidden within organic life. The state of her works seems to want to return to some fundamental rules and rhythms while faintly attempting to break them.
