The intersectional multi-dimensionality of Tan’s work gives rise to subtly transporting atmospheres as well as unfolding relays of indeterminate thought and feeling. Spaces combine, interchange and deliquesce; time slows down, accelerates compresses, expands, halts and reverses; sound intersects with silence and noises on the edge of hearing; narratives begin only to fade out, commencing differently elsewhere and at other times; meanings, intentions and identities are in plain sight but never made entirely emphatic. About the artistTAN Lijie (b.1991) was awarded a Master of Fine Arts degree from the Intermedia School of the China academy of Fine Arts, Hangzhou, PR China (2017) and studied as an exchange student at Kingston University, London, UK (2015).
