Perfection and Imperfection
"A giant future in which perfect human beings are shaped."
Beneath the veneer of genetic perfection in eugenics is an addictive brain disease, coupled with a supreme faith in technology.
In this exhibition, the audience can freely shuttle inside the “perfect human” body between black and green, watch the works, fly up and down, and finally choose to try to break the pursuit of irrational desire, return to the real humanity and the hidden brilliance behind.

Ke Xiaolin, 23rd graduate of the Royal College of Art and Design. A brave, thoughtful healing artist who explores human/social relationships and uses three-dimensional art to critique existing social development issues. I hope to use the power of art to warm others and change the objective world.
Huang Shiyang, a superhuman spirit who lives outside the binary system in search of technological spirituality. For her, digital art is similar to the law of the universe, although it seems to have no entity, but in fact the material foundation is huge, only through the law of quiet and obscure expression. Her art explores identities, bodies, and desires that are malleable, transferable, imitable, and technologically produced and reproduced under new technologies.
