The artist uses sculptural elements including memory foam, marble, resin, glass, bronze, and water. The works take the form of everyday objects like a chair, spring bed slats, a car windshield, a diving fin, etc., but at the same time they resemble a familiar ghost or a distant, mirage-like evocatio.

About Lili Ren:
Lili Ren(b.1986)is a sculptor who uses tactile materials ranging from soft and ethereal to hard and heavy to create intimate narratives in space. Ren is interested in the psychological effects of human scale and bodily forms, unfolding personal narratives that evoke emotions and feelings. These often absurd and dreamlike forms create a mode of escapism, taking viewers to a place where the real and imagined merge.
