Qingyue Wu

Qingyue Wu is a Fashion knitwear designer from Hangzhou, China.She has always been obsessed with arousing people's emotional changes through the touch of fabrics, and has been committed to experiment different forms and possibilities of knitting and other materials, trying to achieve a two-way combination of vision and touch through the contradictory combination and contrast of fabric materials. She believed that memories and emotions were worth remembering and commemorating.

In the finial exhibition, Qingyue collaborate with Yingzhi, expresses the similar family memories they have experienced, to reveal something that was hidden and unnoticed by creating an contradictory existence.

Our practice explores the psychological and behavioral effects of trauma. Trauma leaves behind an open wound filled with lingering insecurities. For victims and witnesses, the past can never be forgotten, resulting in an ongoing sense of unease that transcends and is passed down through generations.

In our artistic practice, we delve into methods and techniques such as covering, stitching and grafting to reconstruct and distort objects. This process of transformation yields an unsettling existence, revealing concealed and overlooked aspects of the objects. Although the viewer can identify the materials employed in our creations, determining their original source becomes a puzzling endeavor. This intentional vagueness pushes the limits of perception, encouraging the viewers to immerse themselves and ponder the hidden narratives contained within.

In essence, our primary objective is to stimulate self-reflection and meaningful conversations concerning the ongoing presence of trauma and its significant repercussions on individuals and communities.
