Klaviersück II

“What is more, each thing moves to its own place,” wrote Aristotle in the Book IV of Physics. Place is about knowledge of space. It is also abstract, immaterial and conceptual. "Klaviersück II" ​takes particular “places” as protagonists; historic contexts and political meanings within the spaces are formed and transformed into signs of visual culture in the society. Also, de-objectification and deterritorialization of place itself make it difficult to experience and understand it physically. I try to further explore and trace the mutation of “place” in the process of cultural production, and evoke a “sense of place” through the sensible experience in the Visual culture. When the viewer echoes with the works, the works come to re-affirm new places.​
