At Nunu Fine Art New York, six Taiwanese artists look for stability in an endless sea of information in a new group show. In the Moment filters through an aperture of life online as each artist interrogates the cold clutch of digital ephemera.
Born and raised in the 1990s, the artists are united by technological advancement and political activity during their coming of age. Bearing witness to the generation of artists that came before them, their work hones in on themes of introspection and individuality—capturing the moment as it comes.
With respect to form and focus, the works of In the Moment don’t hold back. Chiao-Han Chueh conjures movement and fantasy in eccentric forms. Fu Ning brings life to doomscrolling through an iridescent imagination. Guan-Hong Lu advantages absurdity and humor in narrative scenes. Bing-Ao Li tempers memory with fiction in many textures. Guan-Jhen Wang finds pleasure in the unseen, and Qi-Heng Xiao reflects on technology with a much needed warmth.
Together, the artists navigate the ups and downs of an ever-changing world with deft technique and affective resonance. “Their sense of identity has expanded beyond physical spaces into digital realms,” curator Ching-Wen Chang tells Observer. “In their work, you see detachment but also emotional depth. They’re ‘chill,’ but still searching for meaning.”
In the Moment is on view through October 31, 2024.
