Chensi Fang


陈思方(山西,1996)利用废弃的网络媒体片段制作视频。 这些碎片承载着人类经验的残余,唤起了未来的可能性和过去的损失。 方将贫穷和过剩的媒介结合在一起,突出了丰富文化与明显衰败之间的紧张关系。 通过对时间的操纵,她通过一连串的图像营造出一种葬礼般的氛围。 在 19 年夏天因生产氯胺酮被判入狱四年后,方在一个低安全性的中国监狱牢房里工作,方的资源非常有限:一台小型笔记本电脑和一个互联网连接。 她的视频揭示了制作过程中涉及的社会和经济因素。 方声称中国冰毒男爵刘兆华是她的偶像。 当记者问起她制造氯胺酮的事情时,她回答说:“你这是什么意思?我刚刚被判刑。给我一个假。我受到了惩罚。有什么事吗?” - 帕特里克领导

Chensi Fang (Shanxi, 1996) creates videos using discarded fragments of online media.bearing with them the accumulated remnants of human experience, evoking similarly their future and their loss. In her videos, Fang incorporates media of both poverty and excess, punctuating a tension between a culture of plentitude and evident decay. Employing temporal manipulation, Fang builds a funeral tenor through the litany of her images. Operating out of a low security Chinese prison cell after being sentenced to 4 years for producing Ketamine during the summer of '19, Fang's resources are minimal: one small laptop and an internet connection. Tied to their origin, her videos reveal the social and exonomic factors involved in their making. Fang claims Chinese meth baron Liu Zhaohua is her idol. When a reporter asked her about her ketamine manufacturing ("What do you think about your own drug-making behavior?"), she said, "Fuck you mean by that? I just got sentenced. Give me a break. ("My behaviour? I got it. I've been punished. What's the matter?")
