X Museum holds solos for two rising stars

On display in tandem with the two solos is a multimedia exhibition showcasing "Cryptid", an X Virtual Incubator commission programme by British artist Joey Holder, who is known for creating multimedia installations that explore the relationship between humans and natural and technological forms.

At the artist's Beijing exhibition, curated by Wu Dongxue, Holder explores the limitations of Western scientific taxonomy through the lens of cryptozoology and research on plankton.

On view are an AR installation and a two-channel video showing layered footage from laboratory cameras and cryptozoology forums, set to an experimental electronic score by Ptwiggs. Visitors can also hop on the website of X Virtual (xvirtual.org) to explore the unknown, artistic territories of the sea.
