Shao Fan: The Nature of Things<\/span><\/i> brings together a selection of three-dimensional works and paintings by the artist. Since the 1990s, Shao Fan has repeatedly returned to the chair as a structural prototype<\/span>,<\/span> through which the relationships between material, structure, and the emergence of form are examined.<\/span><\/p>\n In these works, the traditional mortise-and-tenon system is no longer simply a method of construction. It functions as a generative principle<\/span>, from<\/span> which form comes into being. Rather than following predetermined models, forms emerge through the dynamic balance of tension and relation. Since the turn of the millennium, Shao Fan has gradually pushed this logic toward a more autonomous level of form. This exploration of generative processes extends naturally to the threshold between three-dimensional and two-dimensional realms. The paintings are therefore not representations of a three-dimensional world but manifestations of the generative processes themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n Across three-dimensional work and painting, Shao Fan\u2019s practice explores how material, time, and structure give rise to order.<\/span> The Nature of Things<\/span><\/i> reflects the artist\u2019s ongoing inquiry into how forms come into being, and how the logic of making continues to shape our understanding of the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n From 22 March 2026, Mirrored Gardens invites friends to enter the space of Shao Fan\u2019s works, where <\/span>the nature of things<\/span> unfolds as a moment of insight\u2014<\/span>opening a way to <\/span>perceive how the world comes into being.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n About the Artist<\/b><\/p>\n Shao Fan, art name: Yu Han.
