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 WorkIdentity, stereotype, and animated anxiety
Wang Yefeng creates a virtual narrative space between reality and fantasy. The work addresses Chinese diasporic identity through an octopus-like figure connected to Fu Manchu imagery and the history of the Yellow Peril stereotype. Animation becomes a way to confront prejudice, historical memory, and cultural anxiety in contemporary visual culture.
