Yue SUN Artist

Yue SUN born in 1993, in Shuangyashan, China. Works in Paris.

 

Graduated with congratulations from the jury of the Ecole Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Nantes Saint-Nazaire in 2021, my work mainly takes shape through the installation of cross-media.

 

My works often start with an encounter with an object, a word or a coincidence.

 

These sculptural proposals start from a reasoned beginning, in appearance, until an absurd result, or

rather aimless. I deconstruct common sense and logic by thinking about the different states of human condition.

 

I use devices and games to explore the role of objects in identity, gender and relationships family. I often use off-the-shelf mechanical technologies like a fan, a robot vacuum cleaner, an inflator, etc. To constantly repeat actions in order to organize a family and noisy “melodrama”.

I choreograph series of scenes inspired by biological mutations. human souls seem to be injected into these proposals.

For example, a robot vacuum cleaner takes on a fundamentally human character trait. When his mobility is limited, he becomes a simple machine following an order in a monotonous way. Through my works, the function of these machines becomes irrelevant. The restriction of their new context modifies their habits and their quality of presence.

By maintaining their postures, some of their habits can be considered as making allusion to the reality of everyday relationships.

I am currently working with two artists in Paris at the Atelier.CCC , at 28 rue Pasteur in Villejuif.
