About



Dan Rong/Angel Rong

b. Guangdong, China


Having lived in China, Australia, the Netherlands, and the UK, Angel’s diverse experiences inspire a continuous exploration of the relationships, aesthetics, curiosities, and power dynamics between humans and the nonhuman lifeforms that surround us. Angel discovers ways of existing within and beyond habitual relationships with other lifeforms, creating immersive spaces that invite awareness of the present moment. Her practice entails motion, spontaneity, contingency, personal experience, and uneven ethics—revealing shifting power dynamics within shared social hierarchies and offering new ways to perceive what surrounds us.

Through anthropocentric critique and humour, she invites audiences to reconsider their position within multispecies entanglements and the overlooked conditions shaping ecological coexistence. In this accelerated society shaped by pre-existing norms, how do we reimagine with what’s overlooked?

Pigeons are deeply entwined with human society—once messengers, navigators, and scientific collaborators, now dismissed as “flying rats.” Angel explores them as agents of human–nonhuman connection (Haraway, 2016), revealing how interspecies relations persist through neglect and disturbance (Tsing, 2015). They represent marginalised urban life and companions in evolutionary worldbuilding.

Angel enquires: how could she embody the perceptions and autonomy of nonhumans to expand human perceptual sensitivity and move beyond conventional structures?

我的足迹遍布中国、澳大利亚、荷兰和英国……这促使我去探索陪伴着我的环境,动物和人类之间的关系、牵绊、美学、好奇心和权力动态。在这个加速发展的社会中,我希望能让更多人关注那些被忽视的常见事物,让它们被看到,被感受到。在深深感受和接触着周围的环境和生物时,我想寻找出他们可能的转变,超越它们本身的能力,打破人们对它们常规的视角。在这个人类中心主义的世界里,寻找城市自然中因有的平等与尊重。雕塑、装置、表演、图像和声音等多种媒介贯穿创作的整个过程。
