GORDON CHEUNG:
CONSENSUAL HALLUCI/NATION
KAVI GUPTA I WASHINGTON BLVD. FL.1
17 SEPTEMBER - 21 NOVEMBER 2026

Kavi Gupta is pleased to announce Gordon Cheung’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, Consensual Halluci/nation, opening September 17, 2026, in Chicago.
 
Drawing on the artist’s experience growing up between London and Hong Kong, Consensual Halluci/nation examines the entanglement of technology, global finance, colonial history, and systems of belief. Born in London to parents from Hong Kong and a twenty ninth generation Cheung, the artist’s practice has developed from a sustained engagement with the cultural, economic, and technological transformations that have defined the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.

The title Consensual Halluci/nation draws on William Gibson’s description of cyberspace in Neuromancer as “a consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators, in every nation.” It also plays on the Latin root hallucinari, meaning to wander in the mind or to dream. For Cheung, the consensual hallucination describes not only a shared illusion but a collective drifting of perception a nation of minds agreeing to inhabit the same dream. The title therefore speaks to the systems of collective belief that underlie finance, technology, national identity, and the construction of history.
