Art of ecosystem
It may sound strange, but growing algae is an interesting and healing process for some. Artist Wang Sicheng decided to create a site-specific installation to do just that for Metamorphic Ecosphere, an exhibition at the Hyundai Motorstudio Beijing. His piece, Beginning and Future, encourages staff and visitors to the exhibition to reflect on the growth of the algae over the course of the exhibition.
The concept of the interaction between people, other life forms and Earth lies behind the exhibition, which examines coexistence between people and other members of the planetary ecosystem through the work of 10 individual artists and collectives.
Running through March 31, the exhibition is curated by Zong Xiao, a prizewinner of the Hyundai Blue Prize Art Plus Tech 2023.
10 am-7:30 pm, closed on Mondays. E-1, 798 Art Zone, A4, Jiuxianqiao Lu, Chaoyang district, Beijing. 010-5810-1088.
