In his 2nd solo-show at Pékin Fine Arts, the Beijing-based Taiwanese artist Huang Zhiyang coins the term 'Peripheral Vision' to illustrate his critical stance toward the contemporary art scene in general and the Beijing scene in particular.
Huang explains, “ My most recently completed work is born from my status living on the outskirts of Beijing. Maintaining this marginal status leaves me feeling increasingly ambivalent toward many of life’s realities. My work is the product of this tension between a life on the periphery and the inevitable attitude of ambivalence resulting there-from. In Chinese, the title of my exhibit is literally translated as “Forever on the Periphery”.
