Apartment 13 is pleased to present artist Baijun Chen @_bye6__ (b. 1998, Guangzhou China) who is a prolific artist, designer and arts organizer based in Providence, RI. She is the co-runner of the Apartment 13 programming. “Confetti” is the first solo show of Baijun’s work since her exhibition “Back to Back” at Triest (NYC) in 2022. Confetti is a survey of her work from 2023 to present. Press release by Joshua Keonaona Yamauchi Boulos: Baijun works to preserve the integrity of morbidly obsolescent things. Confetti is a thoughtful presentation of Baijun’s work from the past three years. In this period, she has set up a studio practice in her childhood apartment in Guangzhou, China and has been working extensively at home in Providence, RI. This show especially features new work made in Guangzhou from late December 2025 to February 2026 which span handmade toys, hand casted mini bricks to custom ordered signage. The line between what is meticulously worked on thoroughly for months and bought from a store is hard to distinguish and it is in this confusion between bedroom and toy store, something emerges. It is the feeling that someone has walked in only whenever u weren’t there, u can still feel the electron afterglow resonating in the mysterious presence. This being said, the abundance of detail in the work, the subjects, the mystery of her care is loud, the homies been waiting for this one. I hope you enjoy this show! Photography by @zhugao_working ❤️🙏 Apartment 13 is open by appointment thru our DMs! We are open Sundays 3-6 and are available on Wednesday afternoons. Press 4E on intercom to access. #baijunchen #apt13gallery

WEEKENDS 12-3 pm we are open, thanks to Jide! Press 4E on intercom and we throw you down a key to make ur way up (buzzer doesn’t unlock door anymore) on Saturday and Sunday 12 pm - 3 pm. Except from press release by @id_xanthrax “[…]The documentation of these speculative home decor projects attempts to create a total non-space, uncluttered and standardized, not unsimilar to many digital advertising formats, creating a sort of floating AI mock-up, a speculative object suspended in a not-yet. Meanwhile, real Objecthood becomes ghettoized (the hood-object!), plagued by its own entropy and neglect, fading from legibility in a low-lit graininess, as technical images dominate attention economies. These images of speculative materiality proliferate aggressively, yet thingness remains slow and heavy (sluggish), beholden to human labour, the limitations of supply chain dynamics, and entropics. The contemporary sculptor becomes the logistics worker of a global supply chain, forced to contend with the limits of an increasingly psychedelic and highly customizable materiality—a materiality influenced by collective, algorithmic desire, and psychedelic manufacturing spun up by fourth industrial revolution technologies with an ambition to flatten the manufacture, production, and delivery systems of our global supply chain into a complex AI-powered robotic machine akin to a sci-fi replicator. Temu merchandise becomes as clever and complex as a Dadaist readymade, Fiverr privatizes exploitation and makes you your own CEO, and many print-on-demand customization services have perfected the Prosumer model of the User, flattening them into Content Creator and Audience simultaneously. With this, the Artist recedes, becoming less and less distinguishable from the User, and the User less and less distinguishable from the Manufacturer of their own algorithmically influenced personal brand. The algo drives the human creative instinct into feedback loops of memetics and Slop within an imagescape defined by the overproduction of anachronisms and cyclical trend-based nostalgia, creating an image-rich, materially-poor world unable to produce its own futurity.[…]” Dm for inquiries/work list*
