介绍

Ascribing human status to nature reveals and muddies the distinction between human and non-human and highlights the range that anthropocentric logic reaches in order to sustain an anthropo-friendly ecology.

 

— Pearl C. Hsiung

Pearl C. Hsiung’s painting, installation and video works utilize various techniques to investigate the perceptions of our relationship to and within nature as viewed through anthropocentric, sublime, and metaphysical contexts. More recent works challenge the physical and theoretical boundaries between human, nature, and artificial to consider how this entanglement of human/nature/artificial impacts landscapes, how it changes our imagining and imaging of landscape, and disrupts our understanding of ecology.
