Four stainless steel salad bowls of fractal-scaling sizes originate from an international supermarket chain—mass-produced industrial commodities shaped by standardized molds. Within today’s highly regulated commercial landscapes, they are purchased en masse, populating thousands of domestic kitchens.
Rejecting a rigid, size-based sequence, the artist reconfigures them with dynamic lightness according to fractal logic—symbolizing the modern individual embedded within the contours of public order. …
Spanning a decade (2012–2021), this body of work condenses Damao’s profound insight into the human condition. Interweaving performance, installation, and painting, the artist constructs a spatial topology of “Landlessness,” investigating how modern individuals confront abandonment, alienation, and the fixity of the gaze within the folding and interaction of space. …
