Silence and silence
Wang Yiyi, born in 1984, has a cross-disciplinary education and life experience in both the East and West. He has obtained bachelor’s and dual master’s degrees successively.
Currently, he is a senior expert in a multinational corporation. The professional books he contributed to have also been widely used.
According to his own account, "In the past nearly two decades, I have given myself and the organization a positive meaning as a social productive force. Naturally and deservedly, I have some experiences and gains, including thoughts." Based on his role as a contemporary artist, his role as a social productive force will not stop for the time being. Besides, there is no conflict between these two roles.
"If we were to compare each artist's artistic behavior or expression to a speech, the speech of Wang Yiyi does not abound in surging passion or display fervent mobilization.
Rather, it is as he himself is - speaking softly, emotionally balanced, deeply contemplative, and amiable. He always takes on the role of someone who listens attentively while narrating eloquently.
His artistic language is so consistently gentle that it can be easily overlooked, yet every retrospection is profound, like a "declaration" with light word but heavy meaning.
It was like a breeze that touched every willow leaf and made it sway along with the branches."

"As an artist,the first thing Wang Yiyi needs to do is to dissociate from his other socialidentities, then reorganize all his social experiences and awareness to createworks with unique connotations. What sets Wang Yiyi apart from many artists isthat he can participate deeply in social production and intense competitionfrom his personal experience and create so-called 'organizational values', which makes his works reach a complex and profound level of reality. His understanding and thinking about society all come from personal experience, not from weak and powerless imagination."
"Wang Yiyi never imposes limits on himself and refuses to label himself as an artist relying on aspecific medium, he can freely create works that stay true to his will andunique language in the vast creative space."

(about his artistic characteristics)
(01)
Dissociation and Reorganization of Social Roles
As an artist, the firstthing Wang Yiyi needs to do is to dissociate from his other social identities,then reorganize all his social experiences and awareness to create works withunique connotations. What sets Wang Yiyi apart from many artists is that he canparticipate deeply in social production and intense competition from hispersonal experience and create so-called “organizational values”, which makeshis works reach a complex and profound level of reality. His understanding andthinking about society all come from personal experience, not from weak andpowerless imagination.
(02)
Internalization and Externalization of the 'Present'
One of Wang Yiyi’s coreartistic views is the “natural internalization and subsequent externalizationof the present”. Even when choosing to immerse himself rather than hide withinthe masses, he has no real intention of altering multiple realities.
(03)
Profound Ambiguity between Human Nature and Materiality
In his pieces, any elementsthat appear related to humans tend not to be the 'protagonists'. The moreclosely associated an object in a work is with humans, the more alienated itsmeaning becomes from people.
(04)
Detachment Toward the Ultimate Destination
Wang Yiyi never imposeslimits on himself and refuses to label himself as an artist relying on aspecific medium, he can freely create works that stay true to his will andunique language in the vast creative space.

NONE PROJECT | 雨卓：王一亦的「转眼」 · Wang Yiyi ：ROTATING THE EYES
None Project (Nov. 13, 2025)
艺术家王一亦近年来的影像创作，以平实的视觉语言，回应着转瞬即逝的日常现实。 “转眼”，既指时间流逝的瞬息，也暗含物是人非的现世隐喻；“转眼”既是量变与质变的临界，也是存在与消逝的交界。许多时候，时间并非均质的刻度，而是由无数“绵延”的片刻构成，后者均承载着不可复制的经验、意义与情感。王一亦的影像实践，恰是在这样的时间哲学中展开。他如一位城市漫游者，也是一位亲历者，在不同的身份间切换，以镜头捕捉那些被忽略的日常片段——运动的球场、交叠的文件、露天的放映、楼道的掠影、雨后的斑马线、反光的窗帘、堆叠的绿叶等。这些画面并非宏大叙事，而是时光碎片中不经意的注脚。

王一亦｜语焉不详
象外 (May. 14, 2025)
王一亦是个假名（pseudonym），然后这假名的动机，和常规艺术家给自己起花名的动机好像不太一样。不单是用假名的人，把自己的艺术家身份当成一个对象式虚构来塑造了自我认同了，意味着一个躲在背后的姿势。
