Jupiter is pleased to present Lullaby, an exhibition of new works by Yongqi Tang that draw upon disparate art historical references from the West to East Asia—and the Middle Ages to the present day—in order to investigate the constructs of identity, cultural specificity, and the modalities of painting.
Featuring painting, drawing, and sculpture, the exhibition visually articulates the breadth of Tang’s practice and the ways in which her process of creating each large-scale painting involves the articulation of its subject in multiple media, each iteration of which results in a distinct work. Displayed in conjunction, these works, which range widely in size and style, evidence the artist’s practice of thinking through not only her medium and subjects, but also her artistic identity and a desire to not be beholden to any one visual language.
