DAZHOU WANG: AUTO CLINIC

get directions

A synthesis of two series, Auto Clinic encourages viewers to question where nature ends and technology begins—and where that leaves humanity.

In his Series of Insect Cars, Wang blurs the lines between established “living” things (insects) and the beasts of steel we so rarely think about in the present (automobiles). Dragonflies, Caterpillars and (of course) Beetles morph into classic cars right in front of viewers’ eyes, begging the question: Are the two really so dissimilar?

It is the artist’s hope that this exhibition will lead the public to question, explore, and challenge their beliefs about what constitutes life.
