Shuang Li

Introduction

"I HAVE LONG BEEN FASCINATED BY DIFFERENT MEDIUMS. AS OUR LIVES KEEP GETTING MORE AND MORE MEDIATED, IT’S ACTUALLY HARD TO REMEMBER THAT A BODY IS PHYSICAL IN THE FIRST PLACE."

– Andrea Bellini in Conversation w/ Shuang Li, Flash Art Magazine, 2022

Situated in globalized communication systems and inspired by various localities and uneven information flows, Shuang Li’s (b. 1990 in Wuyi Mountains, China) work, which encompasses performance, interactive websites, sculpture and moving image installations, studies various mediums that compose the contemporary digital landscape. Crucial to this practice is the interaction between the medium and its users as well as amongst the mediums themselves. These diverse forms of intimacy form a motif that runs through the artist’s practice, as she explores how various forms of technology bring us into contact, and how they form part of a neoliberal apparatus that regulates the body and desire.
