Yi Zhou's latest 3D animation The Greatness, is based on layers of video game programs and advanced 3D programming research, which will debut on Thursday at 20 Hoxton Square Projects as part of her first solo show in London. Curated by Rachael Barratt and Adam Waymouth, and entitled I AM YOUR SIMULACRUM, the exhibition will feature Yi Zhou's work from 2006 to present.
The Greatness begins with a surreal explosion of Pharrell Williams as a vase where as it disintegrates, Williams' face breaks into a cubist inspired composition. Inspired by Dante's the Divine Comedy, a journey begins, leading the spectator through a frightening labyrinth underworld.
I AM YOUR SIMULACRUM at 20 Hoxton Square Projects sponsored by Tag Heuer runs from 2 - 11 September 2010.
