Yang Shaobin: X-Blind Spot

X-Blind Spot is a publication that documents the second phase of a two-part project (2004-2008) exploring the condition of coal mining in Northern China by Chinese contemporary artist Yang Shaobin and the Long March Project. X-Blind Spot explores the peripheral consequences of this industry, including its medical, social, and environmental repercussions. This publication not only illustrates Yang Shaobin’s compelling realization — a range of oil paintings, installations, videos, and sculptures — but also fully documents the project team’s experiences in these isolated coal mining communities, shedding light on a complex world of labor exploitation and psychological trauma. This book is supplemented with extensive contextual imagery and background information to highlight and provide more sociological context to the subject matter and process endured in the realization of this significant project.
