One of today’s leading artists, Jes Fan (b. 1990) makes sculptures that combine elegant abstract forms with an experimental and innovative approach to materials to explore the porousness of identity. Jes Fan: Unbounded focuses on works from the first decade of Fan’s career, showcasing the artist’s use of processes like glassblowing and 3D printing and materials such as resin, silicone, and biological substances. Fan’s way of conceptualizing the world has been shaped by their experience growing up in Hong Kong, both before and after its handover from Britain to China—a geographical and metaphorical crossroads of East and West, ancient and modern, colonial and postcolonial. Fan’s art challenges such binary terms, encouraging us to question inherited assumptions and consider a new way of looking at the world.
