Capsule is pleased to present group exhibition Summer Drift, showcasing works by ten artists that span painting, sculpture, video and photography. Soft, unanchored, and open-ended, the exhibition offers a porous and intuitive experience, untethered to a defined narrative or theoretical framework.
From Gao Yuan’s contemplative landscapes—waiting for stories to unfold—to Alessandro Teoldi’s unvarnished terracotta figures in repose, Douglas Rieger’s bodily abstraction and material assemblages, and Sarah Faux’s collage of fragmented corporeal experiences, the exhibition invites viewers to drift between distinct practices, between lingering moments, quiet suspensions, and unhurried encounters.
Alice Wang’s ambrotype totem of electronic circuit and paired sculptures of electron clouds, along with Feng Chen’s time-based photographic portraits of sound, transform the unseen dimension into perceptible reality. In his sculpture and video Carving water, melting stones, Hu Yun investigates the heritage and practitioners of woodcarving in a Philippine village. Kyle Coniglio’s portrayal of the lone traveller is a self projection onto the Fool from the Tarot. In Maya Kramer’s panel pieces, spectral silhouettes of birds fly across the light-polluted sky. Mevlana Lipp’s reliefs radiate in a dreamscape of flora and fauna.
Together, the works form a reverie—a daydream in the sun-drenched afternoon—reflecting the temperament of the season itself: lush, airy, and attuned to subtle shifts in mood and sense.



Established in late 2016 by Italian gallerist and long-time influential figure of the Shanghai art scene Enrico Polato, Capsule Shanghai is a self-described ‘gallery and art laboratory’ based in Shanghai’s central Xuhui District. Situated on the first floor of a picturesque 1930s garden house in the idyllic greenery of the former French Concession, the gallery works primarily with emerging Chinese and international artists who push the boundaries of contemporary art. Its special focus has been on artists who have personally and professionally migrated between regions, creating unique trans-national and trans-regional links.
