artist | Peng Yun and Jiu Society will participate in white rabbit gallery exhibition: Hot Blood

Artist  Peng Yun and Jiu Society will participate in White Rabbit Gallery exhibition ” HOT BLOOD”. This exhibition opens on March 15, and will last until August 4.

HOT BLOOD introduces 23 artists who are not afraid to take risks. Playful, irreverent – and sometimes downright subversive – they explore subjects ranging from sexual desire and bodily frailty to spiritual ecstasy and the need for human connection. These global artists inhabit a complicated world; they are as likely to be found showing their work in Berlin or Beirut as in Beijing. Whether they emerge from a generation of cosmopolitan millennials or from an older avant-garde generation such as Xiao Lu and Yin Xiuzhen, they refuse to be labelled or limited by gender, age or national identity.

As a female artist, active in fields of video and performance, Peng Yun has been keenly and persistently exploring female consciousness with her gender identity.
