mould the wing to match the photograph

“mould the wing to match the photograph” draws on the archive of Mrinalini Mukherjee, one of the most prominent sculptors in India, known for her experimentation with form and materiality over her forty-year practice. It stages an encounter between Pari (1986), the artist’s monumental hemp fibre sculpture, and archival materials with detailed installation instructions and extensive photographic documentation of Pari and similar works. The archival materials complicate the sculpture’s sense of organicity and intuitiveness, and demonstrate a desire for precision and control. The exhibition emphasises how the archive actively reconfigures the understanding and experience of Mukherjee’s work.

Since the discovery and excavation of the Sanxingdui ruins, the discovery of the Jinsha site in Chengdu in 2001 has come into the public eye again and gone viral.  Large quantities of elaborately made ritual vessels and household utensils, including gold, jade and bronze ware and more, have been unearthed.  These artefacts inherited the form and craftsmanship of the relics found in Sanxingdui, and this close connection between them proves the link between the ancient Shu state and the cultures prevalent in the Yellow River basin and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

The fifteen artists in the exhibition locate the impulse of fandom culture in socio-political happenings that have taken place across Southeast and East Asia by drawing new connections between celebrity worship, drag, postcolonial and post-socialist identities, religion, and the rise of various social movements. Within this intersection, the exhibition repositions the concept of fandom to explore its evolution in relation to shifts among media, technology, and geopolitical change.
