Press Release
Wuhan, where artist Chris Zhongtian Yuan grew up as a child, nourishes one of most interesting urban subcultural scenes in China.
These dissonant voices rise from artists community, grassroots organizations, and the marginalized youths who find themselves completely lost in the urban machines after their college graduation. “Wuhan Punk” is a process of remembering those individuals from artist’s studio in London during the lockdown.
What Yuan is searching for was more than punk – it is rather a forgotten legacy of socially engaged artists, punk musicians, anarchists and bohemians, resonating what many years later Beijing would cruelly categorize as “low end population” and forcefully purged them out of sight from the modernizing city. Whereas in Wuhan, some of the remaining members of this community sought for refuge in the local art academy, where Yuan’s parents work and raise him as a child. “Childhood Scenes” originated from his speculation on the 90s visual cultures in China.
