‘Reality, as much as we can understand it, is composed not of discrete objects, but relationships. We constantly mistake these for category divisions: object, subject; figure, ground; art, artist; artwork, audience. Zhang’s work refuses such distinctions, and the easy sense of superiority, the reification of hierarchies, that they promote. It refuses to depict the fixed thing as the definitive one. Rather, Zhang insists on the value of instability and uncertainty, of process, movement and change. Everything is entangled; everything produces everything else.’ – James Bridle
