张移北从一个假定的命题出发,在介于艺术家、材料与观念三者关系的重新思考。在这种构思/反思过程中,艺术家和她的材料形成了实在世界,实在世界构成了观念世界,思维和材料共同构成了艺术家的意象,这种意象就像鸡与蛋的关系,通向了艺术家与材料之间的合作关系。因此,材料、艺术家和思想注定要共存。那么什么是材料,谁是艺术家呢?观念在哪里?我们也许可以认为,艺术家挑选她的材料,无论是石头、硅还是世界上已经存在的东西(现成物),因为她把她的材料组合成她的潜意识的参考物体。这给移北提出了一个问题,即材料是否属于艺术家,或者反之亦然,即相对于材料,艺术家被选择、移动,或者对于艺术家来说,材料被移动、选择。


Born in Daqing in 1992, he graduated from the Sculpture Department of the Royal College of Art with a master's degree and a bachelor's degree from the Sculpture Department of the London College of Art. Currently working and living in Beijing.

Yibei Zhang starts with a proposition, that is, a rethinking of the relationship between artist, material and ideation. In this rethinking, the artist and her materials form the entity world and theentity world frames the ideation world; ideation and material together compose the imagery oithe artist and this imagery leads, chicken and egg-like, to the collaboration of artist and materialMaterial, artist and ideation are therefore fated to co-exist. What then is material and who is theartist? Where is ideation? We might deem that the artist picks her material, be it stone, silicon orthings that exist in the world (found or sought obiects), because she combines her materials asreference obiects to her subconscious. This poses for Yibei the question of whether the materiabelongs to the artist or vice versa, i.e. relative to material, the artist is moved and relative to theartist, the material is moved.
