Kasia Kay Art Projects says…

The term "visual artist" is a relatively vague one, but it's a dead-on description of Shanghai's Maleonn; his work demands a general characterization, anyhow, not a specific one. Graphic design meets staged photography in his surreal photos that depict stunning figures, caught in the act of simply existing. Maleonn's background in film is apparent in his still photos' bizarre sense of movement. In the project room, Brian Yates' multimedia work makes use of nostalgic found objects, as well as photography and painting.
