HETEROTOPIA
YUAN FANGZHOU SOLO EXHIBITION
2024.07.13 (SAT) - 08.04 (SUN) (THURS-SUN) 12:00PM-7:00PM
STREET DREAMS STUDIOS TOKYO will hold a solo exhibition titled ”HETEROTOPIA“ by artist Yuan Fangzhou starting from Saturday, July 13, 2024.
Yuan Fangzhou was born in Liaoning Province, China. After graduating from Tsinghua University with a major in Arts and Crafts in 2018, he came to Japan and obtained his PhD from Tokyo University of the Arts. He currently works based in Ibaraki. His artistic activities extend globally, with exhibitions not only in China and Japan but also in Korea, the Czech Republic, Bangladesh, and beyond. In Japan, he has exhibited at venues such as ”The 50th Anniversary, Glass ’21 in Japan“ (Hillside Forum, Tokyo), the solo exhibition ”Intermediary compound“ (Tokyo International Gallery, Tokyo), ”The 24th Taro Okamoto Award for Contemporary Art“ (Taro Okamoto Museum of Art, Kawasaki), and ”ARTISTS‘ FAIR KYOTO 2023“ (Kyoto Cultural Museum, Kyoto).
Focusing on the relationships among people, objects, and nature, Yuan integrates multiple media and techniques based on his philosophy influenced by Eastern thought such as post-minimalism and Buddhism, primarily centered around glass materials. He respects the ”consciousness“ inherent in materials and views the unique forms spontaneously created during the firing process as integral to his works. He particularly employs the kiln work technique of heating cold glass in an electric furnace.
In this exhibition, Yuan explores the concept of ”HETEROTOPIA“ coined by philosopher Michel Foucault, aiming to recreate an absolute ”other space“ within reality using glass materials. Unlike utopia, which does not exist in reality, ”HETEROTOPIA“ refers to the absolutely ”other spaces“ that exist in reality. For this occasion, Yuan creates works solely in black and pink, constructing new material forms that inhabit the boundary between nature and artifice through the unique expression of glass. Based on his own memories and experiences, he reexamines the intersection where reality and ”other spaces“ converge.
