Through Mar 30, 2025
Select Days
From: 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM
Immerse yourself in the enigmatic world of Ding Shilun: Janus, on view at the Institute of Contemporary Art Miami from December 3, 2024, to March 30, 2025. This marks the first solo US museum exhibition for Ding Shilun, a rising artist based between London and Guangzhou, China.
The exhibition presents a series of newly commissioned works that explore the concept of a “personal fable,” blending influences from art history, Chinese folklore, Manga and daily life. Shilun’s enigmatic and, at times, unsettling paintings weave together ethereal and ominous narratives that reflect his unique worldview. The artist’s practice spans multiple disciplines, beginning with drawing and sculpture along with vibrant and evocative paintings. For this exhibition at ICA Miami, Shilun takes his exploration further with a site-responsive installation.
