Wang Sishun, Uncertain Capital

Wang Sishun’s works urge viewers to reconsider orders and rules. Uncertain Capital is his discussion that has been ongoing for many years, beginning in 2009 when he decided to melt coins down and recast them as a metal cube. He then took the money earned from the sale of the work, turned it into coins, and recast them into another, larger cube in a cycle that continues here.
