Foreword
Wang Jiazeng's artistic practice encompasses a diverse range of mediums, including oil painting, mixed media, installation, and printmaking. His works critically engage with the individual conditions within collective society, examining the traces of personal existence inscribed in historical times. At the same time, Wang has persistently advanced his exploration of materials and media.
His early works, grounded in personal experience, interrogate themes such as unconsciousness, social alienation, entropy, and modernity. His recent practice employs mediums like metal and handmade paper to investigate the relationship between the artist and materials, as well as the interplay among technique, medium, and time, probing the possibilities of art as a vessel for memory.
The exhibition "The Dust of Time" presents several series of works, including "The Folds of Objects", "Trace of A City", "The Land of Silence", and "The Dust of Time". These works seek to transfer the ineffable inner experience of time into "folds" in physical space that others can perceive, spatializing personal and concrete temporal sensations and, therefore, manufacturing extrinsic objects that can be shared, observed, preserved, or even destroyed.
This spatiality empowers life to exist externally to itself, becoming a crystallization that still differs from life itself and establishes a connection between inner life, experience, and the traces of outer life.
