Through his use and reflection of cinema4D software, Mo seeks to redefine the long-standing genre of portraiture. Mo sees himself as belonging to the generation informed by globalisation, the Internet, and digital technology. In this sense, his work hints at the fact that every present-day individual is a cyborg, whose ethos exhibits a human-computer hybridity. Hence, for Mo, contemporary portraiture must capture and express the immense pain and confusion of human beings who must be equipped with digital technology. Such human-computer hybridity is merely the latest symptom of the complex and lengthy relationship between humans and technology, or in Mo&#8217;s words, &#8216;the error&#8217;, and should be the starting point for our reflection on the myth of human creativity.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nRecent solo exhibitions include: \u201cHacker, Sufferer, Beggar, Believer, MadeIn Gallery, Shanghai, 2023; \u201cSpiritual Politicians\u201d, Jack Bell Gallery, London, UK, 2022; Group exhibitions include: \u201cBodies In-Between\u201d, MadeIn Gallery, Shanghai, 2025; \u201cSemi-Manual Era\u201d, Gravity Art Museum, Beijing, 2024; \u201cConstellation\u201d, Being Art Museum, Shanghai, 2023; \u201cUSB Multi-Port Linking Exhibition\u201d, MadeIn Gallery, QIAO SPACE, in the PARK, Shanghai, 2021; \u201cHereditary Territory\u201d, Shanghai Powerlong Museum, Shanghai, 2021; \u201cHeadlines\u201d, Slime Engine, Shanghai Plaza, Shanghai, 2020; \u201cOcean\u201d, Slime Engine, Shanghai, 2019; \u201cIt was a dream of a trip\u201d, SAFA Gallery, Shanghai, 2018; \u201cShanghai Hot the Beheaded Six\u201d, Yell Space, Shanghai, 2018; \u201cRemote Sensing\u201d, Slime Engine, Shanghai, 2018; \u201cSerendipitous Mission\u201d, MadeIn Gallery, Shanghai, 2017.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","tags":[],"artists_categories":[5],"class_list":["post-417","artists","type-artists","status-publish","hentry","artists_categories-representing-artists"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists\/417","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artists"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=417"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=417"},{"taxonomy":"artists_categories","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists_categories?post=417"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
