aboutÂ
Louise Wan is a multidisciplinary artist based in London.
She practices around sculptures, and mixed media installations exploring the intersections of labour
and automation within capitalism and post-capitalist structures.
Her work explores the paradoxes of labour: the invisibility and necessity, the diminished physicality of labour in the age of increasing automation.
The promise of progress is betrayed by a tendency towards stagnation.
She is particularly interested in how bodies and machines become intertwined—blurring in agency, gesture, and exhaustion.
