Chase Cha

Chase Cha

Amalgamating Hsieh Teh Ching’s one-year performances, Kim Jung-Gi’s stream-of-consciousness figural output, and Pablo Picasso’s synthesis of the visual form,老茶 Chase Cha voices a contemporary message of inquiry into being and potential. Foremost a performance artist of extended durational aesthetics, Cha exemplifies his self-termed “Adlib Aesthetics” via a performative forbidding of visual references while wielding a spray can. Cha works mainly with duration, space, and spray paint. Cha lives back and forth between Belleville, Canada and Hangzhou, China.
