in South on view through December 14, 2023.

Program note:

When I first saw this exhibit, I was attracted by this huge cloud. This reminds me of what we call our private storage devices Clouds, just like every cloud in the sky. We have stored our

emotions and memories on it. The fragments above are like transmitted data, which is transported vertically to the cloud, and the audience sitting on the cloud is integrated with it

while receiving the visual and auditory feelings spatially. The constant open D string creates a state of pretending to whitewash peace, but we, actually affected by the modernization

process of industrialization and digitalization, collided with it on another parallel line of anxiety.

At the same time, I invite you to forego set expectations and let the mind levitate in a space of boundless freedom.
