- Summary:
-
New Year Rot! is an exercise in conflating iconography. The artist draws on images or icons that have been utilised throughout storytelling in the West and Mainland China, revealing both the richness of these modes of storytelling while also promoting a new way of seeing and articulating horror. Throughout Zhang's work in this exhibition the visual languages of filmic body-horror, nianhua (年画) the new year posters popular in China and Diyu (地獄) the realm of purgatory known in Chinese mythology have all been mined to create her new idea of horror.
