Introduction of exhibition

The exhibition Between Plastic centers on the recent artistic practice of Ng Sekha (吴析夏), tracing her cross-media explorations of “plastic” since 2015. Transparent plastic is repeatedly inserted between painting, performance, and installation; through its semi-concealing, malleable, and almost weightless materiality, it constructs an ambiguous perceptual structure—neither fully obstructive nor fully transparent—placing the body, the image, and the act of viewing in a constant state of tension and instability.

In the English context, “plastic” refers not only to the material itself, but also extends to plastic surgery, consumer culture, and the social mechanisms through which the body is designed, regulated, and observed. In the Chinese language, however, “plastic” (塑) simultaneously signifies shaping, reshaping, and regeneration, pointing toward a state of incompletion and continuous becoming. It is within this semantic tension that Ng Sekha operates, transforming plastic into a method rather than a singular medium—one that mediates between perception and structure, and between individual experience and social mechanisms.

In Between Plastic, the artist translates her earlier performance works into easel painting, while reintroducing plastic hemispheres into the pictorial field. This produces layered relations among bodily traces, performative inscription, and transparent partitions. The conclusion of an action does not signify an end, but rather the beginning of another cycle of formation. Here, “plastic” persists as an ongoing process, circulating between desire, objectification, and self-reflection—re-plastic, still in progress.
