艺术家:丁世伟
展览:幽灵腹语
展期:2024年7月13日 - 8月31日
开幕:2024年7月13日 周六 16:00
艺术家依据画廊的位置特性和独有的内部空间结构,使用影像装置、热传感材料、人工智能图像、仿真肉身等媒介完成了五件新作,呈现出一个饱含威权宗教感的末世现场。但在此刻的末世现场,丁世伟认为仍存在弗兰肯斯坦式的物种与我们相伴,它虽没有那八英尺高的躯壳,但它无处不在,在人类神经末梢、皮下组织与意识形态里,等待你的召唤,随时出现,我们与它的沟通仅通过“腹语” ,这门语言也一直在变化。
画廊二楼入口处的小展厅构成此次展览的第一章节,艺术家假想了一场对插满气管的萨姆·奥特曼的末日“审判”,其粗大毛孔的肌肤截面不断隆起着被隐写的宣言。在下沉的主展厅中和带阶梯的旗台之上的第二章节,惧怖的单瞳注视着一个蓝屏色的、后人类世的革命遗留广场,几株真假难辨的苇蒲草在历史的缝隙中伪造希望。
展览中的角角落落——火光下的双眸、斩切的金属蛇身、六指的铁拳、轰塌的旗帜及解剖的纪念碑,无不使用各自的口腹语发出幽灵萦绕锁颈前的卢德主义式低语。也许本杰明·富兰克林1754年疾呼的宣言早已成谶:Join, or Die,此刻,你若不成为幽灵,甚至你若不制造幽灵,那等待你的只有——死亡。
“腹语”在这里,会变成一种共识性语言,眼球的神经末梢说出了宏伟宁静般的震颤。
关于艺术家
丁世伟(b.1989)硕士毕业于中国美术学院跨媒体艺术学院,现工作生活于杭州。他的作品在基于屏幕经验下的影像装置、雕塑、图像、视频、互动装置等多种媒介形式中展开。他广泛地对意识形态话语、流行图像与哲学符号进行援引和挪用,通过媒体界面开启观者的感知通道,过滤并干预个体降维的用户经验,进而昭示了屏幕景观作为当代政治与信仰的反乌托邦式的自我实现预言。屏显作为处于物质世界与数字拟像的中介,不断在参与观者身体的重塑与规训。他的作品一方面将观众已悄然异化的介面身体与观凝感官重新穿刺,另一方面以可爱化(kawaiification) 作为模糊对立与矛盾的定言令式,在痛感与诙谐的矛盾知觉中不断缝合现实与虚拟的边界。

Artists: Ding Shiwei
Exhibition:Specter's Ventriloquism
Duration:July 13 - August 31, 2024
Opening: 4:00 PM, Saturday, July 13, 2024
The artist has created five new works using media such as video installations, thermosensitive materials, AI-generated imagery, and simulated flesh, tailored specifically to the unique location and internal spatial structure of the gallery. These works conjure an apocalyptic scene steeped in authoritarian religious overtones. Yet, within this apocalyptic setting, Ding Shiwei posits the existence of Frankenstein-esque beings alongside us. Though lacking the eight-foot stature, these entities are omnipresent, embedded within human nerve endings, subcutaneous tissues, and ideologies, awaiting your invocation, ever ready to manifest. Our communication with them is exclusively through "ventriloquism," a language that perpetually evolves.
The small exhibition space at the second-floor entrance forms the first chapter of the exhibition, where the artist imagines a doomsday "trial" for Sam Altman, whose coarse-pored skin section pulses with a cryptic manifesto. In the sunken main hall and on the stepped podium of the second chapter, a single, fearful eye watches over a post-human, Anthropocene revolutionary remnant square, rendered in bluescreen color. A few indistinguishable reeds forge hope amidst the cracks of history.
Every corner of the exhibition – the eyes glowing under firelight, the severed metallic serpent body, the six-fingered iron fist, the crumbling flag, and the dissected monument – whispers a Luddite murmur around the neck, ghostly and persistent. Perhaps Benjamin Franklin's proclamation in 1754, "Join, or Die," has become prophetic: if you do not become a ghost, or even create ghosts, what awaits you is but death.
"Ventriloquism" here transforms into a lingua franca, the nerve endings of the eyeballs speak of a grand tranquility akin to tremors.
ABOUT ARTIST
Ding Shiwei (b.1989) holds an MFA degree from the School of Intermedia Art at the China Academy of Art and now lives and works in Hangzhou, China.His works unfold in various mediums such as video installations, sculptures, images, videos, and interactive installations based on the experience of the screen. He invokes and appropriates a wide range of ideological discourses, popular images, and philosophical symbols, opening up the viewer's perceptual channels through the media interface, filtering and intervening with the individual's degraded user experience, thus revealing the screen landscape as an anti-utopian self-fulfilling prophecy of contemporary politics and beliefs. As a mediator between the material world and the digital simulacrum, the screen is constantly involved in reshaping and disciplining the viewer's body. On the one hand, his works re-pierce the viewer's silently alienated interface body and the observation senses, and on the other hand, ultimately adopting "kawaiification" as the categorical imperative to obscure the fanged structure, they constantly stitch together the real and virtual branching in a paradoxical perception of wit and pain.
His recent solo exhibitions include Specter's Ventriloquism,Hansard Space,Beijing,2024;The Window, 1000 Press, Hangzhou, 2023; Faith on Tap, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2021; Enter The Void, Imagokinetics Lab, Hangzhou, 2020.

Ding was the recipient of a special award for the Prix Videoformes in Clermont-Ferrand, France, in 2015 and a silver medalist of the Chinese Film Festival in Washington D.C., US, in 2014. His animated short films had screenings at various international film festivals, including Festival International du Film d’Animation d’Annecy, Holland International Animation Film Festival, International Film Festival Rotterdam, and Tampere Film Festival.

拾萬空间,于2014年成立于北京草场地艺术区,2018年迁址到北京798艺术区。2021年底开设石家庄分馆拾萬当代艺术中心,并于2023年底迁至石家庄市井陉县北障城村。2023年初在杭州市西湖区转塘街道的孵鸡湾建立分部。拾萬北京总部位于798包豪斯建筑集群中的一处二楼下陷式空间,石家庄分部深入到太行山古村落中的一座老教堂,而杭州空间则改造自龙坞茶山旁的一间农舍。拾萬空间对常规化的展览保持警惕,希望从当代艺术的语境出发,通过持续的展览和项目,来回应我们共同的生存境遇,激发出当下文化中被忽视的部分。
Hunsand Space was established in 2014 in the Caochangdi Art Zone of Beijing. In 2018, it relocated to the 798 Art District in Beijing. At the end of 2021, Hunsand Space opened a branch, Hunsand Center for Contemporary Art, in Shijiazhuang, and by the end of 2023, it had moved to Beizhangcheng Village in Jingxing, Shijiazhuang. In early 2023, a new branch was established in Fujiwan, Zhuantang, Xihu, Hangzhou. The Beijing headquarters of Hunsand Space is located within a sunken two-story building in the Bauhaus architectural complex within the 798 Art District. The Shijiazhuang branch delves deep into an old church within a historic village in the Taihang Mountains, while the Hangzhou space has been transformed from a farmhouse near the Longwu Tea Plantation. Hunsand Space remains vigilant against the standardization of exhibitions and aims to respond to our shared existential experiences, sparking the often overlooked aspects of contemporary culture through ongoing exhibitions and projects.
