Alice, Wake Up
Alice, Wake Up, originates from the classic fairy tale Alice in Wonderland. At the end of the story, the self-awakening of Alice enables herself to escape from the wonderland and return to the physical world. The artists create the seemingly harmless, innocent, and humorous works as victims, bystanders or healers to criticize and question families, societies, others, and even selves, inadvertently or intentionally inflict physical or mental harm on the objects. From the perspective of self-analysis, social practice, and theoretical research, this exhibition reveals the close internal relationship between public, private, physical, spiritual, and environmental.
BETWEEN HERE AND THERE
Between Here and There
Places are difficult to describe but not impossible to express. We all live and work at a certain address, a place. The address is precise and clear, while the place is indistinct, relative, difficult to describe.
How is a place built in our minds? What can be used as a symbol of a place? Can a picture can represent a place? Can a description can represent a place, or is an address is enough to represent?
This show offers a comprehensive view of different places, stemming from thoughts to visual forms. The artists in this show explore places on different layers, a faraway place, a place in memory, a place in reality, a place that has disappeared, a new place…
Conceal and Carry
Conceal and Carry represents a moment of reflection on the individual and cultural accumulation of contemporary national trauma. This exhibition investigates the ways in which sensationalism, tragedy, scale, and violence dictate and inform image making and cultural identity. The early twenty-first century has arrived in its own reckless and blurry sense of identity, one that is rooted in the terminal nature of imperialism and the ever-evolving rapport of terror and documentary.
