In her solo exhibition “GHOST_WORLD” at Slash, San Francisco, Taiwanese-American artist Jen Liu problematizes labor activism and women electronics workers in South China. Inspired by the 2023 social media phenomenon of “frog mothers”—unlicensed street vendors in China wearing inflatable frog costumes and selling frog-shaped balloons—Liu presents videos, AR paintings, and amphibian glass sculptures that are “haunted by the workers making the phones, and the greater violence of compression in a digital existence.”
