2011 - Film & Video (Film & Video)

Yang Guangnan

location: New York City, United States
year born: 1986
home town: Inner Mongolia, China

Itch explores the relationship between technology and daily human experience with a motorized arm that extends from within the gallery’s wall, moving up and down while holding a projector that shows a desperately scratching pair of hands.


Yang Guangnan is a multimedia installation artist from the Hebei Province of China. She creates technological devices that explore daily human experience and behavior. Her videos often visualize private and bodily sensory experiences in order to describe emotional experiences.
