Statement 

 
 

Yingting Cui is an artist, game designer, performer, storyteller, photographer, and dreamer. Her work explores technology as an institutional solution to governance, the collective unconscious in the atomized world, and the boundaries between personal memories and fabricated history. She bridges the real and the imaginary, creating socially engaged games to simulate, deconstruct and reconstruct reality.  

1994年出生于黑龙江,2017年毕业于芝加哥艺术学院。我对现实有着强烈的不安全感和距离感。活着宛如看戏。我之于世界之间拥有巨大的荒诞的鸿沟。这鸿沟不可跨域无从逃离。而游戏带来了新的窗口,它存在于想象界与实在界之间,是与现实世界临时搭建的桥梁。在半现实之间玩耍幻想与游戏中,我可以存在,却不因存在而烦恼焦虑。在这个临时的桥梁上,我可以停留,可以共情。游戏是我感知理解并介入世界黑箱的媒介。尝试理解黑盒的构造,解构其运作方式通过游戏或游戏化的方式去模拟,解构和重构现实。我希望创造这样的可以玩耍的世界给其他人。
