Yin Xiuzhen

I came across the Chinese artist Yin Xiuzhen this past winter term, but it wasn't until a few days ago that she came back into my consciousness. I think what intrigues me most about her work, well, I guess to be specific her sculpture Collective Subconscious, is the way in which it breaks the stifled gallery environment/experience, and allows the viewer to interact and discuss the art at hand. Her minibus, which viewers are asked to climb into and tangibly experience, is currently on display in the New York MoMA.
