The relative past is sometimes fleeting and beautiful. If there is no real sense of it, then all these are new.
However, this aesthetic never looks directly at the works of object, nor can it ever be expressed through concrete works of art. In other words, I myself must first of all be equivalent to the temporal behavior and relations of the "things" itself, which is in flux, continually being renewed and concealed in the theme of the objects. In order to achieve this, I first attempt a "counterpoint relationship" in which the "things" and the "persons" maintain an equally interdependent, yet independent relationship.
However, is the human entity, the human mind, the only subject capable of overlooking expression?
An overview of the works may reveal this. The cymbals and tripods confuse their functions by exchanging the elements (number) that compose them, while the fixed-point videos constantly reflect (changes in) the scenery, as if rejecting the attitude of fixed viewing. The bicycles are turned upside down, penetrated by pipes and placed between the walls of the museum, in such a way that they pierce the specifications of the rider/ridden.
The object of the persons is clear, while the object of the things is ambiguous. The objective "something" of the "behavior of things for something" is here an absolute being in a temporary and empty in the white-cube that is not observed by humans, and which is equivalent to the "thingness" of the works and human beings.
In order to indicate that the activeness of perception and sensation is not limited to the speculative behavior of human beings, and as exercise in turning from "things for expression (or works)" to "expression for 'things'", I set out the 《Objective Counterpoint》. It is not a wishful statement or manifesto, but rather an independent stance. So, I am waiting for an "asymptotically encounterable" (and never encounterable) Godot in front of the objects.
