Huaqian Zhang

First exhibition of “from 18:12 to 17:48”, curated by Alejandro Alonso Díaz.

Our senses become heightened when it is hot. We not only glimpse what threatens us, but also what revitalises us, what makes us feel more alive.

Huaqian Zhang’s installation is based on research into temperature and sound, exploring how perception makes its way through somatic channels beyond language. Looking at this light sculpture produces no type of clarity at all, but rather a kind of overexposure: fading contours, glowing edges, rippling images and energy flows that resist fixation.
