C magazine review
Yuling Chen
2026 may 11th
Ian Cheng: emissaries, at MoMA ps1 in 2017 shows his much urgent desire for hybrids and wording through digital animation. It turns out he doesn’t just want to dole out the most minutiae details of everyday life but criticizes Israel Palestine conflicts, wars and political events. The gatherings in his works of various forces reveal his curiosity about China, Iran or South Korea. They are rich for a reason. Etc.
Having experienced Ian Cheng's 'Emissaries' exhibit at MoMA PS1, I was struck by how seamlessly he merges digital animation with pressing geopolitical themes. The trilogy not only showcases his skill in creating hybrid virtual realities but also offers deep commentary on conflicts like the Israel-Palestine situation alongside reflections on global powers such as China, Iran, and South Korea. His work highlights the complexity of modern sociopolitical landscapes using fluid, evolving narratives rather than static forms. What really resonated with me was Cheng's approach to capturing minute details of everyday life while embedding urgent political critique, showing how interconnected our worlds are — from personal experience to international affairs. This blend challenges viewers to rethink how digital media can represent reality, making the exhibit both intellectually and emotionally engaging. For digital art enthusiasts or anyone interested in contemporary political discourse, observing 'Emissaries' underscores the power of art to expand understanding beyond traditional media. In particular, the digital hybrid worlds feel alive and dynamic, mirroring the unpredictability and multiplicity of today’s geopolitical environment. This makes Cheng’s trilogy a relevant and important commentary on the global conflicts shaping our times.
