Katri Walker: Trip the Light at Museo de la Ciudad in Querétaro, Mexico
Trip the Light looks past the spectacle of the polemical world of bullfighting to a quietness that lies beyond. The work uses moving image to explore inherent feminine sensibilities woven throughout a masculine subculture, seeking out a delicate, poetic tension that reflects and underlies this relationship.

Zhang Yuan: Chelsea School of Art Postgraduate Show
"There is a small table on which a teapot steams continuously from its
spout. Look inside the china teacup and, mistily, through the ‘liquid’
inside, a video of the artist by the Thames is revealed. Look inside a
tangerine placed on a shelf and there is a tiny film of the tangerine
being peeled. ‘Creature’ is a crack in the wall into which you peer
closer and closer until you realise you are looking at a video of a
vagina, juicy and gently pulsing. This room was quiet, its various
treats revealing themselves slowly, sometimes delightful, sometimes
unnerving. It was the perfect combination of emotional impact and
intellectual provocation and I absolutely want to go back to see it
again." more
