Yuyang Zhang: stupid little life
Amid a grueling 20-month visa petition process, China-born artist Yuyang Zhang did something pretty incredible—he channeled his anxiety into a series of mixed-media digital collages and photographic diptychs, blending imagery from Chinese communist propaganda with American iconography in a precise, subtly humorous style. In stupid little life, which closes on August 27, Zhang's works reflect on his queer identity and sociocultural hybridity.
