Liu Chuang | “Thailand Biennale, Korat 2021: Butterflies Frolicking on the Mud: Engendering Sensible Capital” @ Korat
Antenna Space is pleased to announce that the artist Liu Chuang will participate in the Thailand Biennale, Korat 2021 Butterflies Frolicking on the Mud: Engendering Sensible Capital at Korat. The exhibition will open on December 18, 2021 and last until March 31, 2022.
Under the theme of detoxifying traditional capitalism (under the Capitalocene) and engendering new capital, the initial concept of the biennale was to have all the artists come and work with the locals to engender the potential cultural capital of the sites. The curators and artists collaborate with experts to activate the capital of nature, infrastructure, and institutions in an alternative way.
We are trying to figure out what is going on around us now and what we can do in the uncertain future. It’s like playing and struggling on a puddle of mud. It is a detox and a practice to engender new capital. The title Butterflies Frolicking on the Mud expresses our miserable but courageous state. It also indicates the “capital” of hope that emerges from the midst of anxiety and uncertainty.
