Yuchu Gao
Yuchu Gao (b. 1993, China)
Intuition runs fearlessly with Yuchu Gao‘s dreams like a wild horse. She cautiously captures both the tangible and intangible relations of her surroundings: daily objects, history, news, dreams, and even senses. By picking up the elements she sees or feels, then casting a spell on them, fragmented stories gradually come together – stories that manifest one by one in each of her works. No matter how seemingly irrational her visual languages are, all of them embodies the artist’s meticulous observation and reflection of our reality. The viewing process thus provokes curiosity and excitement, inviting us to open this book of hers and indulge in her powerful narratives, similar to opening a book.
