DOKU Experience Center – LuYang

Mudec is hosting a new “Deutsche Bank Artist of the Year” exhibition, showcasing DOKU Experience Center by artist LuYang, who won Deutsche Bank’s prestigious international contemporary art award in 2022.
Among the most interesting young contemporary Asian artists, LuYang draws inspiration from science fiction, manga, video games, and techno culture, exploring hypermodern technologies and content concerning posthumanism and transhumanism. His reflection blurs the distinctions between the real and digital body and finds expression mainly in dance, a recurring theme in his practice.
The exhibition stages together and for the first time the six different avatars created by LuYang – Human, Heaven, Asura, Animal, Hungry Ghost, Hell – that embody the six realms of rebirth of Samsara, the karmic wheel of life that symbolizes the eternal cycle of birth, death and reincarnation.
