📆 Preview Invitation: ‘Shao Fan: Refrain / 复沓’ at White Cube Mason’s Yard (Thursday 21 May 2026, 6–8pm) 🐰✨
Shao Fan’s first UK exhibition will feature his meticulously rendered ink-on-rice-paper paintings that arise through an intense period of concentration and the slowing down of time.
Repetition in subject matter allows the artist to enter a meditative state while creating the work, contemplating the principles of Taoist philosophy and the distinctions between form, line and tone.
The artist has said: ‘For a rabbit, I may have drawn 200,000 strands of hair – by accumulating the hairs one after another and adding layer upon layer. It is a form created by a myriad of repeated layers.’
📍 ‘Refrain / 复沓’ will be on view from 22 May – 27 June 2026 at White Cube Mason’s Yard.
