Untitled Art Miami Beach | 2026 : Booth N8

Mandy Zhang Art is delighted to showcase a solo presentation by Silia Ka Tung at Untitled Art Miami Beach, expanded through a collaborative film with Clare MacDonald.

Tung’s practice draws on mythology, natural phenomena and popular culture to construct immersive worlds in which fear and wonder coexist. Shaped by her upbringing in Hong Kong, including Chinese medicine, manga and video games, she has developed a hybrid visual language that merges myth, fantasy and speculative narrative into an evolving system.

The booth extends this world through the idea of an infinity loop: a cyclical environment that unfolds like a multiverse. Centred on escapism as both psychological impulse and cultural condition, the presentation draws on global mythologies and Carl Jung’s collective unconscious to consider how archetypal structures persist within increasingly virtual and constructed realities.

At its core is Tung’s Mambo series, in which rhythm and movement extend across an interconnected body of two diptych paintings. The works can be encountered in multiple sequences, so that each viewing generates shifting interpretations. Her compositions form a psychedelic choreography of organic shapes and saturated colour, populated by hybrid forms such as multi-capped mushrooms, elongated pig-like figures and feathers that take root, suggesting bodies in perpetual transformation. Opposite, the oval painting Peepal Dream references the Peepal tree as a symbol of wisdom in Buddhist and Hindu traditions. Emerging from the wall, the Fragments series of soft sculptures evokes dismembered or evolving parts of mythological bodies, carrying the pictorial world into three dimensions.

The presentation is completed by a short film developed with MacDonald, whose work explores characters navigating systems that do not quite hold. The film follows a girl as she crosses into a mythological landscape, where each encounter with a hybrid being mirrors her gradual transformation. Its narrative is cyclical and deliberately unresolved, a portrait of escapism as a loop rather than a destination. The screen is discreetly embedded within a fairy ring of mushrooms, echoing the protagonist’s moment of passage and inviting viewers to step into the same portal-like space. Extending Tung’s world-building into a time-based medium, the collaboration brings forward a shared interest in narratives that resist resolution and in systems that fail or loop.
