| Description |
Installation by Shirley Tse, Polymathicstyrene (Hand-carved extruded polystyrene, Installation length variable with modular 18" panels, 2000). The image illustrates a key early stage in Shirley Tse's career when she produced sculpture and installations made of plastics to explore urban development, changeability and mobility, and bicultural identity. The image depicts a characteristic work, an installation using hand-crafted synthetic forms—intricate reliefs recalling miniature land- or cityscapes, micro-circuitry, topographical designs or flesh— staged in modular accumulations. This body of work and individual piece were publicly exhibited in prominent exhibitions and discussed by critics in major art journals and daily press publications. |

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key early-career phase in Shirley Tse's art in the 1990s and early 2000s: her sculptures and installations made of common synthetic materials such as plastic grocery bags, bubble-wrap, clear packing tape and molded polystyrene. These works fused idea, material and object, focusing on the global circulation of cheap plastic consumer goods and packaging as both a formal and conceptual motif, while exploring urban development, 20th-century changeability and mobility, and her own bicultural identity as an Asian woman in the United States. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to understand this foundational body of work, which brought Tse early recognition through exhibitions, coverage by major critics and publications. Tse's work of this type and this series is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article. |
