Behind the scenes
He Xiangyu
Palate
He Xiangyu’s “palate” series (2012-) depicts the tactual perceptions of his tongue feeling inside his mouth, transposed into diffused formations of shapes and colors. In his latest exploration, He paints, cuts and pastes materials to develop the piece into an alluring collage which seeks to activate otherwise undeveloped zones of senses through the immediacy of our perceptual responses.
