This compilation revolves around urban space. The selection offers a wide sample of artists’ negotiation of the space which surrounds us; from hyper-architecture to spatio-temporal dislocations to the cinematic spectacle and back.

本作品集是環繞城市空間的作品,收錄了一系列藝術家對他們所身處的環境之表達。從超密度的建築到時空錯置以至影像的光影,互相對疊的空間製造出另一種對周圍環境的看法。
