Artist

Alice Wang

Alice Wang makes sculptures and experimental films that interrogate medium-specificity as both a conceptual schema and in the exploration of forms. Taking a phenomenological approach where the body is the site of knowledge production within a non-geocentric universe, Wang ventures to geological, technological, and archaeological sites to investigate the uncanny dimensions of the natural world. Using metamorphic substances like fossils, meteorites, plants, and heat, Wang engages sculpture as a critical framework to examine metaphysical questions about the nature of reality.

Alice Wang has exhibited work at UCCA Dune Art Museum, Qinhuangdao; Power Station of Art, Shanghai; and Vincent Price Art Museum, Los Angeles, among others.

2025: RYAN LEE Gallery

Ina Gerken

Ina Gerken’s intuitive, predominantly large-format paintings delve into the subconscious and the uncertainty inherent in our experience of the world. In her process, she surrenders to the unknown, letting the paint guide her until something figurative or invisible—perhaps a feeling or an inner landscape—emerges. She remains open to multiple interpretations of her work, allowing it to speak in different ways to each viewer. The quick-drying gouache or acrylic paint enables her to work with spontaneity and energy, her creative decisions driven not by intellect, but by instinct and bodily expression.

Ina Gerken has exhibited work at Deichtorhallen Hamburg, Germany; Kunstmuseum Bonn, Germany; and Galerie Forsblom, Finland, among others.
