te editions

Launching our new title this year, te magazine N°4 𝚂𝚙𝚒𝚗𝚊𝚕 𝙼𝚎𝚖𝚘𝚛𝚢 《脊柱记忆》. Orders now available on our website, link in bio! 🦒🦆🐎🐄🐻🦌🐦‍⬛🦜🐅🐈 从支撑生命的脊柱出发，第四期聚焦于对于非人类动物的身体利用与操控，感知与共情。本期的大多数创作者都有着与动物长期相处或持续调研的经验，他们通过观察、教育、绘画、写作与图像等创作方式，去解构既有的“伦理关系”与“秩序”。我们是否可能构建一个相对平等的多物种世界？又是否能够以更为谦卑、内省的方式，重新学习如何与他者共处？第四期并不预设答案，而是邀请读者代入他者的身体，在缓慢的交换中重新打开想象，任由一种尚未被命名的关系在此间生成。 Starting from the spine, the very pillar of life, issue 4 of te magazine focuses on nonhuman animals to explore the manipulation of their bodies alongside themes of perception and empathy. This fourth issue does not offer answers; instead, it comprises reflections and imaginations, as most contributors have long-standing experiences with or ongoing research on animals. Through observation, education, painting, writing, and image-making, they seek to loosen the existing “ethical relationships” and “orderly rules.” Is it possible to envision a relatively equal multispecies world? Can we relearn how to coexist with “the other” through a more humble and introspective lens? Issue 4 offers no definitive answers; instead, it invites readers to inhabit the bodies of others, to feel and acknowledge them. A slow exchange occurs that reopens our imagination and generates a relationship that has yet to be named. 𓇻 Featuring 10 contributions across disciplines. 𓇻 Editorial team @michaelguooo @kechuncc @nod_yek 𓇻 Graphic design, as always by @solxus You will encounter the book at the following book fairs and in bookstores!

✧ exhibitor spotlight ✧ ✧ Library Mothership London Library Mothership is a visual odyssey that crawls on the surface of the image. It serves as a visual and textual archive, systematically researching, archiving, and curating image studies in artist’s books, super books, and printed fashion objects. Through its published and furnished surfaces, where words meet objects, cyber-interfaces mesh analog materials, an iconography of contemporary life and death is drawn. @library_mothership ✧ Luka Yuanyuan Yang & te editions New York / Beijing / London Luka Yuanyuan Yang is a visual artist and filmmaker based in Beijing and London, working across documentary film, video art, photography and performance to explore themes of identity, migration, and memory. te editions is a curatorial, editorial, and publishing collective operating in New York and Beijing, dedicated to exploring the intersection of art and the humanities. They examine historical and contemporary social landscapes through a diversified and microscopic lens, focusing on how cultures encounter, collapse, and transform each other within global cultural flows. Launched with a bilingual annual magazine in 2021 and formally established in 2023, they collaborate with research-driven artists, scholars, and communities to produce physical publications together. @te.editions @lukayang ✧ Nomad Papaya Books Düsseldorf / Taipei Nomad Papaya BOOKS is an art book / zine publishing house focusing on transition of culture(s) and identit(ies), based in Taiwan / Germany. The founder started questioning the notions of identity and nationality but get really confused by himself, so he decided to make art books and collaborate with people, try (not) to seek answers and form new ideologies and relations.

📚 Digital publication: ‘The Borderless Shelf: Re-imagining a Library Space’ Last summer, @te.editions ’ residency as @asymmetryartorg Librarians-in-Residence unfolded across New York City and London, travelling farther than we had imagined. ‘The Borderless Shelf: Re-imagining a Library Space’ is a digital publication that documents these encounters and continues to hold and circulate the ideas, conversations, and practices that emerged during, and beyond, the programmes we organised together. The publication features te editions’ conversations with reading rooms and bookshops, reflections on the Drifting Backpack initiative, and a commissioned essay by our Curatorial Fellow Sharon X. Liu @sharonxyza . Sharon’s text investigates the Chinese literati Tian Han’s studies and social life during the Taishō period in Tokyo, tracing a once-existing transnational cosmopolitanism and asking: how might we imagine, and create new connections and solidarities in the present moment? By sharing this publication, we hope to encourage reading as a communal event, and the library as a porous site that moves between the singular and transmission, allowing conversations to continue, as reading is about us all. 📖 Read the publication via link in bio👆 Designed by @fleurbleueeeee

🥢 Exhibition🥢 𝘋𝘪𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘌𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘴 偏食 is now on view, an exhibition curated by @te.editions . At @hongmuseum_official , Wenzhou. 2026.1.17 - 7.17 With food as the thematic anchor, 𝘋𝘪𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘌𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘴 examines the constant deviations taking place in our world. The exhibition stages a conversation on the contemporary food system between eleven artists and artist collectives with research backgrounds, exploring the alienation experienced by producers, consumers, and food alike, as well as the mechanics of displacement that subtly affect our senses and sensibilities. The exhibition foregrounds the apparatus of control that is omnipresent throughout gathering and industrial manufacturing. The search for the source of food is also an inquiry into labor: who has been sacrificed within this closed loop? Within the exhibition’s framework, Wenzhou not only represents the process by which local experience is absorbed into a global system but also provides a means for contemplating material interests and ethics. With 11 groups of artists: @jumanamanna @liuxinyil @map_ocean @1qr_wan @_waterchestnut @shashuang_suswo @twu_o3 @tingaotin & @lyleartsydudes @elianurvista Mao Chenyu Zheng Bo Exhibition design by @studio_eki_ong Graphic design by @y17studio_official Photos by @zhengyezhou_

To start with a fresh year, @hongmuseum_official will present a group exhibition Digestive Ethics, which will open from January 17 to July 17, 2026. Curated by Michael Guo and Kechun Qin (@te.editions ), Digestive Ethics takes food as a portal to expose the ongoing alienation of food, labor, and perception within globalized production chains. Eleven artists trace out an invisible food chain—from oceans and forests to factories—reflecting on the entanglement of local experiences and global systems, as well as the veiled labor and exploitation behind them. The exhibition invites the audience to "chew" their relationship with the world anew. Artists / 艺术家 Wei (@_waterchestnut ), Sha Shuang (@shashuang_suswo ), Zheng Bo, Jumana Manna (@jumanamanna ), Tracy Wu (@twu_o3 ), Gao Qizhen·Tin & Lyle Lin (@tingaotin @lyleartsydudes ), Mao Chenyu, Map Office (@map_ocean ), Elia Nurvista (@elianurvista ), Wan Qing（@1qr_wan ), Liu Xinyi (@liuxinyil ) 弘美术馆将以群展《偏食》开启2026年，展期为1月17日至7月17日。 《偏食》由郭鹤天和秦可纯（te editions）策划，以食物为锚点去观察世界正不断发生的偏移，邀请十一位（组）具有研究背景的艺术家，共同探讨当下的食物系统：生产者、消费者与食物本身所经历的持续异化，以及这些偏移的机制如何潜移默化地影响着我们的感官与思考方式。艺术家们通过影像、装置、绘画和拼贴等媒介游拽于海洋、森林、田地与工厂的边界，在展厅内勾勒出一条隐形食品链。展览探讨从采集到工业生产中无处不在的操控机制，而对于食物的追根溯源即是对劳作的追问，谁是闭环中的牺牲者？温州在展览中不仅代表了一种地方经验不断被编织以顺应进入宏大世界体系的过程，也成为观察“利”与“义”的重要路径。我们邀请观众从自身的经验重新“咀嚼”和“消化”，理解食物与生活的多重关系。 Exhibition Design / 展陈设计 @studio_eki_ong Graphic Design / 平面设计 @y17studio_official Font / 字体 FounderType Special Thanks / 特别鸣谢 NASTORE, WKU Library #hongmuseum_official #digestivethics
