| Description: | Stone Crossing (2025)is a performance and multimedia installation by artists Lanyun Huang (Finch) and Owen G. Parry in 'The Sensitive Entity: Poetics of the Everyday' exhibition at Yuheng Art Museum, Guangzhou, China, 11 Dec 2025 - 8 March 2026. Stone Crossing brings together Owen’s performance hangout – slow choreography, fan-made music and idle play with Finch’s playful and poetic approach to vibrant objects. It features 'Homework' (2025) – a sculpture and theatrical prop that stands in as a meteorite from outer space, a philosophers stone found in ancient Chinese tradition, or simply a rock around which a picnic happens. The work forms a large-scale installation of domestic objects and found artworks organised intuitively into an archive of colour. The objects are picked up and activated during the live performance; reassembled or repurposed to produce choreographic actions, or "shipped" with other objects and the performers themselves to create small inconsequential shrines and monuments of the everyday. Stone Crossing meddles with time and materiality, drawing attention to the magic theatres of the everyday, while inviting readjusted and relaxed forms of spectatorship. The Sensitive Entity exhibition invites an aesthetic and perceptual reconsideration of daily experience. In a time shaped by acceleration, the faint glimmer of light, the brief pause, the unnoticed material trace are easily eclipsed. The exhibition seeks to reawaken a delicate attentiveness, guiding viewers from“browsing” to “dwelling”, so that the density and depth of ordinary life may once again be felt. The exhibition includes artists Guo Tutu, Emma Mo, Owen G. Parry & Lanyun Huang (Finch), Wang Yuhe, Xu Dengqian, and Zhu Guanha. Hosted by Wang Shaoqiang, Professor at the Chinese National Academy of Arts and Director of Guangdong Museum of Art, curated by Yao Xiaofei with assistants Yu Ziqi and Li Yingzi, and presented in collaboration with local arts institutions and partners. |
