Stainless steel, bubble machine, bubble soap, high-voltage generator, dimensions variable. Huang Ran’s installations and films attempt to describe an ineffable predicament. The contradictory relationships among materials mimic, beneath a romantic outer skin, the paradoxical relationship between the individual and the apparatus that inspires desire. In Maybe We Just Care About the Feeling of Caring, bubbles collide with a high-voltage screen and sublimate into blue sparks, thus giving aesthetic meaning to the damaging power of the current.

This artwork was featured in the UCCA exhibition "ON | OFF: China’s Young Artists in Concept and Practice, ” 2013
