The hexagon column is a naturally occurring geometric structure formed in the universe.
“Untitled" (2025) draws inspiration from hexagonal formations on Earth such as basalt columns found in volcanic sites and the decades-long wind storm still happening at the north pole on Saturn. Experimenting with geometric abstraction, the work takes the hexagon column as a readymade for the self-organizing and self-generating intelligence of nature.
It was made in direct connection to the latest film "Pyramids and Parabolas III" (2024). A structuralist meditation on alienation and exploration, "Pyramids and Parabolas III" draws from six years of solo expeditions to landscapes that mirror extraterrestrial terrains. Filmed across Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Iceland, and the Arctic, the work layers poetic narration with vivid imagery of deserts, ice fields, and volcanic formations. Wang uses the camera to investigate both the physical and psychological solitude of navigating these spaces, connecting hexagonal elemental patterns of the Earth to the vast, unknowable geometry of the universe. The work also ties these reflections to Wang’s personal history, recounting her grandfather’s life as a Chinese spy and linking themes of secrecy and survival to the metaphorical isolation of astronauts and explorers.
Alice Wang received a B.Sc. in Computer Science and International Relations from the University of Toronto, a BFA from the California Institute of the Arts, and an MFA from New York University. She was an arts fellow at the Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and a Villa Aurora fellow in Berlin. In 2021, Wang was shortlisted for the BMW Art Journey prize at Art Basel Hong Kong, and she has been a grant recipient from the Canada Council for the Arts since 2016. Wang has presented solo exhibitions at the UCCA Dune Art Museum, Beidaihe, China; Capsule Shanghai (2017, 2021); Human Resources, Los Angeles; and 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica, among others. She has also presented work at the Hammer Museum, Galleria Continua, Para Site, Galerie Urs Meile, and the 14th Shanghai Biennale. Her work has been featured in Artforum, Art in America, Hyperallergic, Mousse Magazine, ArtReview Asia, ArtAsiaPacific, and the Los Angeles Times. Wang is an artist-in-residence at the International Studio & Curatorial Program. She lives and works in New York.
六边形柱体是一种宇宙间自然形成的几何结构。
《无题》（2025）灵感来源于宇宙间的六边形地貌，如火山遗址中的玄武岩柱，以及土星北极端持续数十年的风暴。作品在几何抽象的探索中，将六边形柱体视为自然界自我组织和自我生成之智慧的“现成物”（readymade）。
该作品与王凝慧的最新影像作品《角锥体与抛物线 III》（2024）相辅相成。《角锥体与抛物线 III》是关于疏离与探索的结构主义沉思，植根于王凝慧六年来孤身一人对异星般荒野景观的考察。影片拍摄于犹他州、新墨西哥州、亚利桑那州、冰岛及北极，诗意的旁白伴随着沙漠、冰原、火山地貌的生动影像，镜头语言流露出行于其间时身与心的孑然。艺术家将地球上六边形的基本结构与宇宙深邃未知的几何秩序相联系，同时，作品融入了艺术家的个人历史，讲述其祖父前所未知的生活秘辛，并将秘密与生存的议题，与宇航员和探险者的孤立状态相关联。
王凝慧获得多伦多大学计算机科学和国际关系学士学位、加州艺术学院艺术学士学位和纽约大学艺术硕士学位。她是巴黎第一大学（Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne）和柏林Villa Aurora的艺术研究员。2021年，她入围巴塞尔艺术展香港展会的宝马艺术之旅（BMW Art Journey）奖。自2016年起，她荣获多项加拿大艺术委员会的奖金资助。王凝慧曾在UCCA沙丘美术馆（中国北戴河）、胶囊上海（2017，2021）、Human Resources（洛杉矶）、第18街艺术中心（圣塔莫妮卡）举办个展，也曾在汉默美术馆、长青画廊、Para Site艺术空间、麦勒画廊和第十四届上海双年展参与展览。她的作品受到《Artforum》《Art in America》《Hyperallergic》《Mousse Magazine》《ArtReview Asia》《ArtAsiaPacific》和《洛杉矶时报》的报道。她是纽约布鲁克林的国际艺术与策展工作室项目（ISCP）驻地艺术家，现居纽约。
