💡 更多与2022年“OCAT x KADIST青年媒体艺术家项目”相关的讯息将于近期发布。
曹澍
1987年出生于山东济宁，现工作生活于杭州。他的工作界面包括且不限于3D数字模拟影像、声音装置、电子游戏等。曹澍习惯于构造疏离克制，暗藏众多分支的叙事，形成不同媒介的作品之间相互关联的意义网络。作品往往基于某个特定地点和空间展开，提出开放性的问题。他希望通过不同物质材料和媒介的实验，对历史事件或个人记忆进行感性层面的再次激活。此外，他也对历史上基于不同文化环境、技术环境之间的误读和错位感兴趣。

郭城
1988年生于北京，现工作生活于上海。先后获得上海同济大学学士学位（2010）与英国皇家艺术学院硕士学位（2012）。他的艺术实践着眼于既有/新兴科技对社会与文化方面的冲击与影响，以及置身其中的个体与社会生活之间的关系。郭城的作品常以雕塑/装置的形式呈现，他经常使用幽默又冷峻的形式语言，将宏大议题与看似随意的日常物品相连结，为想象和讨论提供了批判性的视角。郭城曾获得新世纪当代艺术基金会“艺术家创作及展览资助计划”（2022）、保时捷“中国青年艺术家双年评选”奖（2021）、奥地利电子艺术奖荣誉奖（2020）、CAC://DKU研究与创作学术奖金（2020）、数字地球学术奖金（2018-2019）、华宇青年奖评委会特别奖（2018）、生物艺术奖等（2017）等。

胡伟
1989年生于大连，工作生活于北京。他本科毕业于中央美术学院油画系，2016 年研究生毕业于Dutch Art Institute（DAI）。胡伟使用影像、装置、 印刷图像、表演和绘画等多种媒介进行创作。他的兴趣常始于文本与视觉文化之间看似无关的元素，通过调研、转译和想象来探索艺术与现实关系在政治和形式上的多重的、可思辨的联系。他近期的实践游走在不同的地缘语境和“消音”的历史和材料中，调查个人、非人及物质在历史和自然改造过程中的能动性，分裂和人为的异化。结合动态影像和散文美学，他的工作也揭示不可见的劳动、情动和价值判断在不同政治经济环境中的不稳定关系。

李明
1986年生于湖南沅江，2008年毕业于中国美术学院，现居住并工作于杭州。在李明的录像实践中，始终可以看到一种自导自演的工作方式。影像作为一种有效的表达手段，可以轻松转化创作动机。他习惯于将作品观念置于头脑发酵的图像结果之后，这也使得他的创作始终存在一种“即兴”的状态。与其说这种创作语境是艺术家刻意经营出的一种游戏，不如去理解为第一人称的作者正与观众一同信马由缰。李明曾荣获“HUGO BOSS亚洲新锐艺术家大奖”（2017），“皮埃尔·于贝尔创作提名奖大奖”（2008）。

刘雨佳
1981年生于四川，本科毕业于四川美术学院，研究生毕业于伦敦艺术大学传媒学院，获艺术硕士学位，现工作、生活于北京。刘雨佳的近期创作主要通过影像来探索记录性现实与虚构的张力。艺术家通常使用纪录片的手法来拍摄“真实生活”的场面，但同时又使用虚构或“虚假”形象来描绘“真实生活”的隐私时刻。她近期的作品使我们洞察到社会现实本身的虚构与幻象层面——即将现实本身体验为一种虚构。

The eight shortlisted artists will be included in the Emerging Media Artist Exhibition 2022 opening at OCAT Shanghai. An international jury will award one of the artists with a short, fully-funded research residency at KADIST San Francisco in 2023 based on their exhibited works, prior practice, and a residency proposal. The residency provides a unique opportunity to conduct artist research in the San Francisco Bay Area for up to three weeks and to develop an international professional network with institutions and professionals in the United States.
💡 Further information about the Emerging Media Artist Exhibition 2022 will be announced soon.
Cao Shu
Cao Shu (b. 1987, Shandong Province, China) lives and works in Hangzhou, China. His working interfaces include but are not limited to, 3D digital moving image, sound installation and interactive games. Cao Shu often constructs narration in a restrained way, offering the audience a new perspective of things, and through his transdisciplinary practice, a multi-branched network of meanings is formed. His works are often based on a specific place and space and ask open-ended questions. He hopes to reactivate historical events or personal memory at the perceptual level through experiments with different materials and media. In addition, he is also interested in the notions misreading and dislocation based on different cultural and technological environments in history.

He received his bachelor's degree from Tongji University, Shanghai, China (2010) and his master's degree from the Royal College of Art, London, United Kingdom (2012). Guo works predominantly in sculpture and installation. His practice mainly focuses on exploring the mutual impact and influence between established and emerging technologies and individuals in the context of culture and social life. Guo's work often use humorous yet calm language to link grand issues with seemingly arbitrary objects, and to provide critical perspectives for discussion. Guo obtained New Century Art Foundation "Art Production and Exhibition Support Program" (2022), Porsche "Young Chinese Artist of the Year" Award (2021), Ars Electronica Honorary Mentions (2020); CAC://DKU Research & Creation Fellowship (2020); STARTS Prize Nomination (2020); the Digital Earth fellowship (2018-2019); the Special Jury Prize of Huayu Youth Award (2018); the Bio-Art & Design Award (2017).

He works in a variety of media, including film, installation, printed images, performance and drawing. His interest often begins with the seemingly unrelated elements between text and visual culture, exploring the multiple, speculative connections between art and reality in relation to both political and formal level through research, translationand imagination. His recent practice travels through different geo-contexts and silenced histories and materials, investigating the dynamics, fragmentation and synthetic alienation of human, non-human and material in the process of historical and natural transformation. Combined with moving image and essayistic aesthetics, his works also unfold the precarious relationship between invisible labor, affect, and value judgments in different political and economic environments.

Li Ming
Li Ming (b.1986, Hunan Province, China) graduated from China Academy of Art, Hangzhou, China (2008). He currently lives and works in Hangzhou, China. In Li Ming's video practice, you can always see a self-directed working style. As an effective means of expression, image can easily transform the motivation. He was used to putting the idea of his work behind the image result by mind fermenting, with made his creative process always have an "impromptu" state. Rather to say this creation context is a game the artist has tried hard to build out; It is better to understand that the first person's author is letting things take their natural course. Li obtained HUGO BOSS ASIA ART Award for Emerging Asian Artists (2017); Pierre Huber Creation Prize (2008).

She currently lives and works in Beijing. Liu Yujia's recent practice engages with moving images. Her video works and films explore the dialectical tension between documentary reality and fiction, examining the complex and mysterious dimensions of subjective experience in different social and political contexts. The artist shoots "real life" scenes in a mode similar to documentary, while, the private and invisible dimension of "real life" could be revealed by her fictional or "fake" figures. Her recent practice reveals the fictional and illusory aspects of social reality, allowing the audience to experience reality as pure fiction.

About Organizers
OCAT Shanghai is the first professional art institution focused on media art and architectural design in China. Located in the Suhe Creek area of Jing’an district, OCAT Shanghai aims to serve as a forward-looking, influential, socially-aware and interactive art institution through exhibitions, research, communication, public education, publications, and collections. Artist Zhang Peili is the current executive director of OCAT Shanghai.
OCAT Shanghai is the first branch of OCAT Museums to open outside Shenzhen. Inaugurated on September 29, 2012, it has since organized a series of influential academic exhibitions. The museum officially moved to its new location in October 2019 (-1F Sunken Garden, Qufu Road, Jing’an District), and has been open to the public with its inaugural exhibition in the same month.
KADIST believes contemporary artists make an important contribution to a progressive society, their work often addressing key issues of our time. KADIST, a non-profit organization dedicated to exhibiting the work of artists represented in its collection, encourages this engagement and affirms contemporary art’s relevance within social discourse. KADIST’s local hubs in Paris and San Francisco present exhibitions and events, and organize residencies and educational initiatives, as well as producing projects online and via social media. Concurrently, KADIST is actively establishing networks across five areas—North America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, Asia, and Latin America—inviting new artists into the collection and initiating collaborative programs, especially exhibitions with museums of each region. Together, they aim at facilitating new connections across cultures and creating vibrant conversations about contemporary art and ideas.
