Dialectics of Polarity: Heinrich Wang and Cai Yi Xiu Duo Exhibition

TING TING ART SPACE joins forces with NewChi Porcelain to present Dialectics of Polarity: A Duo Exhibition of Heinrich Wang and Cai Yixiu. Bringing together two time-honoured Eastern materials with distinctly different characteristics, the exhibition opens a dialogue between materiality and spirituality.

Heinrich Wang, founder of NewChi Porcelain and Tittot, is the first artist in the Chinese-speaking world to devote himself to contemporary glass art. With a practice spanning design, filmmaking, and literature, he combines poetic thought with exceptional craftsmanship to imbue porcelain with a pioneering intellectual beauty, redefining Eastern objects and renewing confidence in their aesthetic identity. Working with white porcelain, he pursues precise, pure forms through the intense heat of the kiln. White, hard, and sharply defined, his porcelain embodies an almost absolute sense of order and strength as light and shadow move across its surfaces.

Born in Fujian and a graduate of the Fujian Academy of Arts and Crafts, Cai Yixiu reinterprets one of East Asia’s oldest artistic traditions—lacquer art—through a contemporary lens. Using natural lacquer, pigments, and mineral powders, he transforms this ancient material into a visual language through carving, polishing, and countless layers of application, exploring memory, perception, and the passage of time. Through repeated cycles of lacquering, sanding, and waiting, he allows time and material to participate in the creative process, preserving traces of natural formation within richly layered colours and textures.

Two artists: one working in white porcelain, the other in lacquer; one luminous, the other deep. One pursues precision of form, while the other responds to the changing nature of his material.

Beginning with materiality, Dialectics of Polarity extends into reflections on order and nature, reason and emotion, eternity and time within Eastern aesthetics. It also offers another way of seeing traditional craftsmanship in a contemporary context.

We warmly invite you to enter the exhibition and experience the tension that emerges when these two polarities meet.

Second-Hand Stories Moises Yagues Solo Show

SECOND-HAND STORIES presents Moisés Yagües’ latest body of work, bringing together his iconic Artist and Monsters, Garden, and Homage to the Masters series alongside the Taiwan premiere of a new group of works created with carefully sourced antique frames.

Collected by the artist from flea markets and antique shops, each vintage frame carries the traces of a previous life. Rather than simply containing the image, these historical objects become active participants in the composition, allowing past and present to coexist within a single work.

Through Yagües’ signature blend of humour and tenderness, forgotten objects are given renewed purpose, inviting viewers to discover how every mark of time can become the beginning of a new story.

Shoko Mihira

The “monsters” created by Shoko Mihira originate from personal experiences, world events, and people encountered in life, each transformed through her perspective into tangible forms. Rooted in real-life experiences, the works evoke a strong sense of familiarity—“this really happened”—with each piece carrying its own narrative.

Before focusing on her artistic practice, Mihira spent over a decade immersed in BMX street culture, which continues to inform her work. She creates her pieces using flame working, a technique learned from her mentor Zii, working primarily with durable borosilicate glass suitable for long-term display and collection.

Zhang Chun Ying

Artist Zhang Chun Ying works with ink on silk and mixed media, using layered washes and delicate refinements to create tranquil and translucent surfaces. Through landscapes, bamboo, rocks, flowers, and spatial structures, the works construct dreamlike scenes that reflect an Eastern view of nature, time, and the inner world.

Influenced by Zen philosophy, the artist explores the relationship between the self, nature, and space through the interplay of light, shadow, and layered environments. The works invite viewers into quiet, meditative spaces filled with emotional stillness and contemplation.

The Reposition of Sights

“Seeing” has never been a one-way act. As we see artworks, the artworks, in turn, see us back.

“The Reposition of Sights” centers around the dual states of “seeing” and “being seen,” inviting ten international contemporary artists to respond to the familiar act of seeing through their distinctive visual languages.

Some works within the exhibition embody an active gaze: figures within the compositions confront the viewer directly, projecting emotion, energy, and imagination outward, at times even carrying the intention of forming a connection. In doing so, viewers gradually become aware that they themselves are also being seen. Other works return to the more traditional role of being observed, where unfolding scenes, situations, and relationships within the image carry the viewer’s gaze and interpretation, turning seeing into a process of negotiating relationships, power, and distance.

By placing “seeing” and “being seen” side by side, the exhibition dissolves the fixed boundaries between observer and observed, allowing the two positions to continuously shift and exchange throughout the act of viewing. As gazes begin to circulate back and forth, seeing becomes more than a simple action. Through the notion of “Reposition,” the exhibition further reflects on the shifting nature of perspective and perception: how we see artworks, how artworks see us, and how we come to recognize ourselves through these constantly changing positions of seeing.

Riccardo Nannini x Paolo Pilotti Group Show

Riccardo Nannini, also known as Cane, begins his work from the moment when something ordinary starts to feel slightly “off.” Familiar symbols, characters, and everyday scenes are pulled apart and recomposed into sharp, punk-inflected visual narratives charged with irony and tension.
His paintings unfold with a strong sense of storytelling.
Figures seem to perform within theatrical, sometimes chaotic environments, and the density of details encourages viewers to move across the surface as if reading a graphic novel panel by panel. Humor and discomfort coexist, creating a subtle but persistent sense of unease.
Paolo Pilotti’s work begins with seduction. Bold colors, luminous surfaces, and embroidered fabrics create an immediate visual attraction. His paintings often appear luxurious and tactile-almost theatrical in their intensity-inviting viewers to come closer, even to imagine touching them.
Yet the longer one looks, the more this glamour reveals itself as a strategy. Pilotti builds his compositions upon the structural foundations of Renaissance figuration, referencing classical balance and sacred iconography.
Within these refined frameworks, however, he inserts contemporary symbols: exaggerated lips, tattoos, dyed hair, brand references, and markers of cosmetic enhancement.

Woven Dreams: Female Artist Group Show

The feminine perspective acts as a prism, refracting everyday life into a spectrum of subtle and vivid possibilities. This group exhibition brings together five women artists from diverse cultural backgrounds, exploring contemporary female experience as it unfolds between lived reality and the edges of imagination. 

The works reveal moments of tenderness and emotional care, expressions of selfhood free from social expectations, and reflections on childhood, memory, and cultural context. Though diverse in approach, they collectively point to the fluid, layered, and evolving nature of female experience.

Rather than defining what it means to be a woman, the exhibition allows multiple voices to coexist, inviting viewers to encounter the richness and complexity of contemporary female perspectives.

Mirrors of the Soul: Group Exhibition about Animal

This group exhibition brings together seven international artists, presenting animal figures that span time and space: from cats, dogs, and rabbits of everyday companionship, to bears and tigers symbolizing strength and primal desire, and even extinct dinosaurs and imaginary unicorns. These animals are not naturalistic depictions, but anthropomorphized beings imbued with human emotions, gestures, and states of mind, reflecting our own condition within urban life.
