American artist Aryo Toh Djojo, known for fusing the subcultures of California with science fiction and spiritual iconography, is having his first solo exhibition in the China area. In this new body of work, he explores mysticism and the unknown with heat-reactive paintings that transform and reveal themselves when the temperature rises. The visuals are paired with soundscapes inspired by drone music as well as photographic light leaks to create a dynamic, atmospheric experience. ‘Spectra’ is running in Perrotin until July 5.
