Amanda Ba's exhibition 'Developing Desire' showcases larger-than-life women in urban settings, challenging Western perceptions of China and exploring personal identity through art.
"I typically think of my solo shows as contained theses," says Ba, revealing her aim to explore contemporary China post-Covid and assert her individuality beyond her family's narrative.
Ba notes, 'I wanted to see for myself what post-Covid contemporary China is like.' This statement exemplifies her desire to break away from sentimental perspectives.
The exhibition critiques Western narratives surrounding China, stating: 'I don't need to affirm or reiterate what family-focused film narratives suggest about my culture.'
