<Don’t Mirror Back>
“A signified without a signifier.” 🕳️☝️
I am thrilled to exhibit my work ”My finger prolongs itself in the void“ in the upcoming group show <Don‘t Mirror Back> at @the_koppel_project .
Language is a labyrinth, a mirror maze that often traps us in endless reflections. In this practice, I choose to ignore the constraints of matter—to pass through the solid and find a space where existence needs no name.
When the mirror cracks, the void begins to speak.
🗓 07–14 March 2026
💃 Private View: 07 March, 18:00–21:00

If a CMOS Baby Dreamed Three Dreams
2025
CMOS sensor tray for CCTV cameras, LEDs
32 x 14 x 8 cm
No one knows when it began, but CCTV cameras must be accompanied by a red light while operating—unless in secret surveillance. The CMOS baby seemed to recognize this already in its swaddling. It dreamed, and in the crib remained the traces of three nocturnal emissions.

Port
2025
Tin
91 x 42 x 3cm
This work is entirely uninsulated, made up of 153 holes. A careless person who connects it to a 220V power supply could die instantly. It is made of tin. Normally, tin is not this dangerous—because in electronic products, it’s usually used only in small amounts, functioning like the nerve endings that connect to organs in a biological body. Even after being melted down, the tin that forms this port can still be resold at a high price and continue circulating as part of other electronic devices.

My Finger prolong itself in a void
2025
Thinkpad keyboard, PLA, iron
40 x 40 x 120 cm
When we point at a concept with no physical form, our gesture actually lands on empty air, on the vacuum between meaning and object.
The ThinkPad TrackPoint exaggerates this movement. It extends the fingertip into a direction that never truly arrives, offering an endless surface of nothingness to press into.
In this work, I try to visualize that act of pointing toward an idea. When attention converges on a single red dot, we stop pointing at things. The finger becomes a signifier without an signified, stretching freely in the space of pure meaning.

Feeder
Retired SMT feeders re-employed in a leisurely manner.
Electronic material feede, Aluminum profile, Air compressor
207x207x210cm
2024
I have collected 24 retired feeders from factories along with a large amount of discarded electronic materials, allowing them to continue providing a form of leisurely old-time work. These feeders come from SMT production systems of different countries, thus presenting various forms, but overall resembling guns. However, behind this seemingly aggressive appearance, they have produced a large number of consumer-grade electronic products, omnipresently influencing human life.
When humans stand in front of them, the feeders emit a sharp "bang" and spit out a very small piece of electronic material. These electronic materials fall to the ground and gradually accumulate.

Huang Ziyue & She Luyun: PACING ALONG THE FLYING EDGE ON THE CEILING
She Luyun: ‘Guideline’ 2024 – Circuit board, Stainless steel, battery – 7.5x7.5cm
“The practice of “testing” has evolved into a form of consumer behavior today, where conducting thorough tests on various metrics has become a hallmark of high-quality living. As consumerism delves deeper into our lives, we continually use “testing” to create refined personal needs, expanding the scope of what can be tested and quantified. Therefore, I have created the “Guideline” detection instrument, which, unlike conventional testing products, is dedicated to presenting “pollution” in a beautiful manner without providing digitalized results. The process of testing is also filled with aesthetics, highlighting the significant void behind people’s testing behavior today: we don’t truly want to know the results or solve the problems; we are simply enamored by the meticulous aura that “testing” brings and the lifestyle it symbolizes. Guideline will be placed on the ceiling of a small room, resembling a vintage, beautiful hanging fan, becoming an adornment, and a decoration for the high-quality crowd. I will place a smoking area outside the actual building and install a Guideline there. This Guideline will be connected to the Guideline inside the small house via Wi-Fi. Whenever someone smokes outside, the Guideline in the small house will also light up.”
She Luyun: ‘Temporary Boundary Marker (Partial)’ 2024 – Tin Block – 10x6.5cm
“Interpretation: The infinite potential of time and space lies in the fact that the neurons of silicon-based lifeforms can be designed into any shape and perpetually cycle. The monument temporarily maintains a rectangular shape for ease of further processing. It is not a tombstone but a boundary marker. I have turned the tin scraps generated during the production process (connectors of electronic products) into a rectangular stele, and cast as many electronic interfaces as possible on its surface to showcase the history of electronic product connections. These interfaces include, but are not limited to: Type-C, Lightning, HDMI, AC/DC, headphone jack, Micro USB, BNC, and RCA.”

October – November 2024 – Huang Ziyue & She Luyun: PACING ALONG THE FLYING EDGE ON THE CEILING
She Luyun: 'Infrastructure' 2023 - propylene, nylon membrane - 48 x 26 x 120 cm
"The project was realized in an abandoned international school in Beijing, the capital of China, where tuition fees were high and the students were always wealthy or respectable families. In China, most of the time people need to "circumvent the wall" to get online outside of China, but in this place, students don't need this step. Most students at this school know in their hearts that no matter how mediocre their performance is, they will have an internationally renowned university to attend." ~ She Luyun, 2024
Statement from the artists' friend, fellow artist and co-curator for this show, Meng Zhuosiqi, whose work inspired the show's title:
"The Soviet artist Ilya Kabakov created “The Man Who Flew Into Space From His Apartment” during the space race era in his apartment. A large hole broke through the bedroom ceiling, and the empty bedroom, bound with springs around, suggested to viewers that the artist had used his imagination to escape gravity and fly into space. The concept of apartment art was first proposed in the late period of China’s Cultural Revolution in the 1980s, when avant-garde, experimental art could not be accepted by official public spaces and had to be exhibited and communicated in private spaces. This situation remains very common in China today.
"Several floating spacecraft models hanging above the room are the works of She Luyun, using the image of the Shadowsocks software logo for these spacecraft, a software often used for cross-border communication in China..."

Huang Ziyue & She Luyun: PACING ALONG THE FLYING EDGE ON THE CEILING
October – November 2024 in Small House Two, Small House Gallery, London
Huang Ziyue 黄子玥 & She Luyun 佘璐芸 are artists from China (Shanghai and Beijing, respectively) who began their MFA courses at prestigious art schools in London this term: The Royal Academy for Huang Ziyue, & Slade for She Luyun.
About the PACING ALONG THE FLYING EDGE ON THE CEILING* exhibition:
The Soviet artist Ilya Kabakov created “The Man Who Flew Into Space From His Apartment” during the space race era in his apartment. A large hole broke through the bedroom ceiling, and the empty bedroom, bound with springs around, suggested to viewers that the artist had used his imagination to escape gravity and fly into space. The concept of apartment art was first proposed in the late period of China’s Cultural Revolution in the 1980s, when avant-garde, experimental art could not be accepted by official public spaces and had to be exhibited and communicated in private spaces. This situation remains very common in China today.
Several floating spacecraft models hanging above the room are the works of She Luyun, using the image of the Shadowsocks software logo for these spacecraft, a software often used for cross-border communication in China. The Freedom Paper Airplane flew to various locations in China in 2022, and this time Huang Ziyue will take it to the UK.
The concept of family originates from the development of private property; there was no private property during the matriarchal clan society, and de Beauvoir believed that there has never been any such thing as “matriarchy” in history, and women have never had power in human history. The construction of the family’s appearance has also always been based on government ideology and the embodiment of paternal power.
When the authority to arrange the family appearance is given to two artists born around the year 2000, the aircraft on the ceiling can also grow into the shape of an electric fan.
