Evelyn Taocheng Wang. Sweet Landscape

For her exhibition in Bolzano, Wang is creating an artistic scenography featuring numerous new pieces that build on her previous body of work and establish a dialogue with the hybrid cultural environment. Inspired by the local fruit market, mountain landscapes, and medieval frescoes depicting daily life, festivities, and femininity, the artist draws on Bolzano’s visual vernacular in a suite of new paintings on silk and canvas. Garments from her wardrobe also become image carriers. Rich in metaphors, wordplay, costumes, and calligraphy, Wang’s work combines visual poetry, subtle humor, and critical depth.
