ARTIST’S STATEMENT

“My work is about the sensations suggested by grotesque anatomies. I want people to be intrigued by the possibility of impossible bodies, I want people to imagine the feeling of touch skins and textures. My attention goes to the topics of hybridization, transformation, self identity and the bizarre. I’m inspired by the unusual, by what is behind the first impression, in shapes and meanings. I believe that Art is Beauty, but to me it means neither harmony nor balance.

Cai Guo-Qiang (b. 1957, Quanzhou, China) was trained in stage design at the Shanghai Theater Academy.
While living in Japan from 1986 to 1995, he explored the properties of gunpowder in his drawings, an inquiry
that eventually led to his experimentation with explosives on a massive scale and to the development of his
signature explosion events. Drawing upon Eastern philosophy and contemporary social issues as a
conceptual basis, these projects and events aim to establish an exchange between viewers and the larger
universe around them, utilizing a site-specific approach to culture and history.
