Works by Guimi You, Miguel Angel Payano Jr., Joeun Kim Aatchim, Astra Huimeng Wang, Jacopo Pagin, Yuri Yuan, Shana Hoehn, Roksana Pirouzmand, Xin Liu among many others, are currently included in Simon Lee Gallery's "Machines of Desires" exhibition on view from July 21– August 24, 2022.
Curated by Emilia Yin and Kat Sapera, the group exhibition 'Machines of Desire' pursues the idea of ‘the desire machine’ as a metaphor for the transcendent, glitch-triggering effect that art in the modern era can engender. With a focus on both historical and contemporary artists whose works play with and complicate familiar aesthetic languages and functions, 'Machines of Desire' seeks to encourage a reading of art as a mode of contemporary mythology or folklore, a space where shared documents of memory metamorphose into forms previously unrealized.
