Press Highlight: Qin Tan — Cache Memory

THE BLANC is pleased to share recent press coverage of Qin Tan’s work in connection with the two-person exhibition Cache Memory, previously presented at THE BLANC.

Supersonic Art recently published a feature highlighting Qin Tan’s paintings from Cache Memory, situating her practice within broader conversations around technology, consciousness, and myth in contemporary painting. The article reflects on Tan’s distinctive visual language—surreal landscapes populated by symbolic figures and tools that move fluidly between the digital and the physical, the imagined and the real.

Based in New York, Qin Tan’s work explores how contemporary subjects experience emotion, memory, and embodiment in an increasingly virtual world. Her paintings invite slow, contemplative looking, emphasizing atmosphere and psychological resonance over explicit narrative. The Supersonic Art feature also situates Cache Memory within Tan’s wider exhibition history and ongoing international presence.

Cache Memory was a two-person exhibition featuring works by Qin Tan and Shangkai Kevin Yu, curated by Leo Yuan, and previously on view at THE BLANC.
