Description
"Clearance" is a 15-minute video art exhibited in Yan Lei's solo exhibition, "invasion". Unfortunately, the video is unavailable in our archive. Based on the photographic documentation, this video is about the artist plucking his own armpit hair by a tweezer. This artwork dovetails with the theme of "Invasion", violence and spectation. Moreover, it also pushes the boundaries of audience's acceptance, which the artist is dedicated to throughout his art career. (Zhuocheng Jiang '26)
