个展及新书 | 象牙塔:红绿女孩
Bananafish is hornored to present: Green Red Girl, the solo exhibition by Xiang Yata.
The first series of 20 green and red color works by Beijing based artist Xiang Yata originally came from her on-going comic story since 2011 called Opthalmic Test, a visionary and powerful world created through the artist's imaginary eyes. After Xiang Yata accepted Bananafish's solo exhibition invitation, she created another 9 new works to further explore an inner self relationship roled by a twins-like girl, painted with green and red colors, which is also the theme of this show: Green Red Girl.
The red girl was born in a red world. The green girl was born in a green world. First respectivly living in their own world, then one day, Bang! Two parallelised worlds interacted and overlayed accidentally, unfolding an unbalanced scene of two colours inclining onto each other. The red girl and the green girl both found herself placed in the opposite side. Experiencing an emotional battle weaving with Fight, Strategy, Struggle, Entanglement and leading to a hysteric exhuastedness, the red girl and the green girl gradually reconcile and shake hands with herself under a peaceful circumstance. The body silhouette fades out till the heel and reflects a dot again. She accepts the existences of the other color more than any time.
Xiang Yata (Zhu Hui) was born in Hunan in 1985 and graduated from Beijing Film Academy with a BA degree in Animation Art in 2009, now lives and works in Beijing.
Xiang Yata's comic work regularly published in Special Comic and Art World Magazine. Her animation work Red Scarf and Exerciese Book was awarded Best New Artist in 10th Fest of Department Animation of BFA.
Tata loves to explore variety of creation methods, and also a girl facinates in making mini books and zines. The exhibition also launches a new book named Green&Red Girl published by Bananafish Books this August, Pausebread Risograph printed and imited editions of 150.

香蕉鱼非常荣幸地在我们的书店空间里呈现艺术家象牙塔的个展:红绿女孩系列原画个展。
最初的20幅作品起源于象牙塔长期的创作项目《验光》系列(即将由纸耕堂出版):红绿世界。在受到香蕉鱼个展邀请之后,她全新创作了九幅红绿女孩纸上墨水作品,这将是这组作品第一次展示给观看者,也是本次展览主题《红绿女孩》的来源。
红女孩来自红色的世界,绿女孩来自绿色的世界。某一天当这两个平行世界重叠在一起,天平倾斜,流沙倒入另一端,自己站在自己的对立面。经过对抗、博弈、拉锯、纠缠,精疲力尽的争夺,在你来我往中,红女孩和绿女孩握手言和,自己和自己和解,影子退回到脚跟。她们比原来任何时间都要更肯定另一种颜色的存在。
象牙塔(朱慧),85年,自由艺术家,毕业于北京电影学院,现生活工作于北京。作品多以丙烯、铅笔、水彩等创作手法为主,并有多部根据自己作品原型创作的动画作品。漫画作品多次刊登于《SC特别漫画》 《strapagzin》(瑞士)《艺术世界》等刊物杂志。个人动画短片作品《红领巾和练习本》获第十届北京电影学院动画学院学院奖最佳新人奖。
