About Exhibition
Gnostic Induction, Coupling Interosmosis
In the Gnostic school of cognition of intelligence, the knowledge or consciousness acquired through personal experience is collectively referred to as "Gnosis", and it is believed that the accumulation of "Gnosis" can free them from ignorance and the present world. In the current complex and changing environment, there seems to be a growing lack of dissent for cultural creativity, the early spontaneous organization and form of art individuals have gone offline, the selection of art institutions has become more secure and sound, and the favor of the art market has become more and more convergent to a standardized model. If the present determines the future, all these choices are collective and individual songs of opportunity, which will have a profound and irreversible butterfly effect on future cultural exploration.
This exhibition looks forward to a sense of induction: the link is open, and the field is blended. At the scene, it is very convenient, quick and large to discover that the individuals of contemporary art creation in various periods are engaged in complex and in-depth exploration and practice with each other in different fields of interest. "Coupling" refers to an interaction of influences. This resultant force refers to the interdependence, mutual influence, and mutual constraint between the various parts within the system. The contagion in the presentation follows the law of interpenetration, believing that this energetic spiritual sense will have an incredible projection and gravitational pull on each other's awareness.
