Pleased to share Yu Ji’s first solo exhibition in Italy at Centro Pecci “Hide Me in Your Belly”. Yu Ji came to international attention with the 2019 Venice Biennale. Yu Ji’s work draws inspiration for her practice as a sculptor from the context in which she lives and works, resulting in unfinished forms that evoke bodies and situations in transition and related to the everyday life. The exhibition stems from the daily confrontation with the context of the city of Prato and the spaces of Centro Pecci where the artist will produce new works alongside existing ones. The exhibition continues the investigation begun by the artist at CCA Berlin during her solo exhibition in 2023, to which “Hide Me in Your Belly” serves as an ideal continuation.
