From the organiser
Presenting Just Because: CAO Yu, Artspace's Ideas Platform features works by Beijing-based CAO Yu that address gendered expectations, patriarchal social structures, and idealised notions of female beauty.
Using her own image, fallen hair as thread, and a mirror-like substance made from her own urine, the artworks shift between vulnerability and provocation, subtlety and excess. Together, the works employ dark humour and abjection to probe the uneasy relationships between beauty and vanity, self-image and social expectation, desire and disgust.
CAO Yu has garnered international acclaim for potent multidisciplinary works that engage her own body, image and lived experience as a primary medium. She reveals a complex negotiation of social constraints from the perspective of a female artist living in China.
The Ideas Platform is generously supported by TWT Property Group.
