Zhang Ding, Control Club

UCCA Center for Contemporary Art
Beijing, China

Zhang Ding’s work plays on ideas of sensory perception and will, constructing absurd scenes full of contrast. Control Club is both a tower-shaped stage—built entirely from speakers—and a reactive sound installation. In the compulsive frenzy brought on by this monumental stage, a world driven to chaos by excessive control is made manifest.

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