What does time make possible here that a still image could not hold?

Begin with the image, then return to the label, material, scale, duration, and collection context. The work becomes clearer as these clues begin to connect.

Look With This Work

Humor as a way to cut into reality

Deng Wei's practice often begins from painting and extends into a sharp, playful observation of everyday and marginal realities. Humor is not used to soften the work. It becomes a way to reveal awkwardness, desire, social absurdity, and the instability of ordinary experience.
