Seoul and Berlin-based artist Haegue Yang’s immersive multimedia environments combine diverse materials and cultural traditions with references ranging from science and art history to political events. This exhibition features recent works that explore interconnectivity and movement, including Sonic Intermediates – Three Differential Equations, 2020, a trio of sculptures that are activated regularly, filling the space with a ritualistic rattling of bells.
Each sculpture alludes to a pioneering modern artist – Barbara Hepworth, Naum Gabo, and Li Yuan-chia – with a line from Li’s poetry providing the exhibition’s title.
