For the project Manufacturing Aesthetics at the Songshan Lake Boxes Art Museum, I developed a series of analog drawings on paper and colored foil on site. The supports are paper and foil in gold, silver, and copper tones, whose color values I derived from the visual identities of the three participating companies 睿华玻璃 (Ruihua Glass), 微石集团 / 拼酷 (Wist Group / Piececool), 净达环保 (Jingda Environmental Protection). On these surfaces, I explore drawing in the sense of Disegno and communication: the line as a world-operation. The drawings emerge in process during my stay, directly in the exhibition space, where they are also presented.

Six color tones are derived from each of the three companies; printed as paper/foil, they form the drawing material:

The Beautiful Formula Collective is about painting and creating collective works based on The Beautiful Formula Language. The Beautiful Formula Language makes it possible to understand the course of compositions, to realize the compositions and to design new ones. We use the combination of spontaneity, improvisation, and rhythm in applying colors to surfaces. The Beautiful Formula Collective paints not only in the studio, but also in public spaces. The Beautiful Formula Collective has performed and exhibited in Kyiv, Singapore, Zurich, Istanbul, London and Wuhan, to name a few stops.

The Platforms Project is an international exhibition of the independent art scene and has been presented every year since 2013. The objective of Platforms Project is to map artistic action as it is produced in the context of collective initiatives by artists who decide to join forces in seeking answers to artistic questions by creating the so-called platforms.

An exhibition featuring videos and animations, sculpture, drawings and paintings, all exploring the theme of rhythm. Rhythm Section is a loose-knit international collective that has staged exhibitions in numerous locations around the world. Previous exhibitions have been held in Munich, Augsburg, Istanbul, Tbilisi, Wuhan and Athens. We first met in 2011, and now the time has finally come for us to collaborate in Leiden.
