    Chromatic Crumble!
    Ziping Wang
    26 October 2025 – 4 January 2026
    Galerie Richard Rogers, Château La Coste
     

    Château La Coste presents Chromatic Crumble!, an exhibition of new paintings and watercolours by Ziping Wang at the Galerie Richard Rogers. On view from 26 October 2025 to 4 January 2026, the presentation unfolds in dialogue with the gallery’s suspended glass-and-steel architecture, featuring a site-specific installation that extends Wang’s compositions into the surrounding space.

     

    Almost folding into itself and rotating inward, Chromatic Crumble! immerses the viewer in a shimmering optical field—an illusion of shifting images and dazzling colors reminiscent of a kaleidoscope. Drawing from her signature vocabulary—fragments of food packaging, advertising, Chinese and Japanese decorative motifs, and Old Master still lifes—Wang assembles layered compositions that activate the viewer’s sensorial memory.

     

    Freed from their original contexts, these visual elements are recombined in vibrant, unstable arrangements that celebrate the power of design to shape perception, desire, and reality itself.

    About the Artist

    Ziping Wang (b. 1995, Shenyang) holds an MFA from the Pratt Institute, New York, and a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design.

     

    Drawing on the visual languages of advertising and illustration, Ziping Wang’s paintings are inspired by the overwhelming experience of living within an attention economy in the digital era. Visually seductive food packaging often serves as the starting point for Wang’s colorful configurations that combine a wide array of references and styles, ranging from cartoonish renderings of food, traditional Chinese and Japanese decorative motifs, Old Master still lifes, geometrically patterned forms, and amorphous blobs of varying opacity. Wang’s paintings offer the mirage of a narrative and space in which dissociative fragments cohere, yet resist any further extraction of meaning. Paintings as decoys, that talk about something without talking about it, or by talking about something else.

     

    Recent solo and group exhibitions include ‘small talk’, Unit London (London, 2024); ‘Boundless Reverie: Chinese Savoir Faire and Contemporary Art’, K11 MUSEA (Hong Kong, 2024); ‘Traces of Love and Timeless Adventure’, Galerie Marguo at K11 Musea (Hong Kong, 2023); ‘The Loudest Silence’, Peres Project (Seoul, 2022). She recently collaborated with Louis Vuitton, creating the ‘Sweet Tooth’ handbag, one of five artistic collaborations in the 5th edition of their Artycapucines Collection. Her works are in the collections of the ICA Miami, Zhuzhong Art Museum, Beijing, X Museum, Beijing, K11 Art Foundation, Hong Kong, and The Consortium Museum in Dijon, France.
