Stella Zhong's sculpture brings together vast spaces and the particulate in esoteric forms verging on the geometric, infrastructural, and alive, even edible; her installation discloses only a sliver of this incongruence, compressing layered existential and political conditions. Zhong builds sites that surpass perspective, instead making tactile instability, simultaneity, inextricability.
