HK(X,ℚ)

By/Fang Gaize

Into hours, minutes and seconds.

I'll break you, fold you, or crush you.

You have lost your memory, experience and emotion.

You only have physical attributes, and physically you need to reduce the dimension.

No blood vessels, no heart, no brain. You don't need it.

You don't need to live, so you become absolute, true and you never die.

I need you to become light and sound.

I need you to become him.

To become her.

To become it.

To become me.

Exhibition Manual:

1. This exhibition is very violent in a sense, because I need to force you to dismember yourself. To be exact, dismember the part of you that becomes "me". All the artists in this exhibition are very cold and ruthless. Memory, love and dreams are not considered in this exhibition.

2. The usual artistic elements include the following seven kinds: line, shape, form, light and shade, space, texture and color. You may find that the elements of all the works in this exhibition are not complex.

3. Please pay more attention to the materials that make up the work. They are important.

4. Even if I need you to peel off "me" to watch the exhibition, you are still very important. Do you want to stand on the side or in front of the work? Do you want to watch from the dimension of time or space? Willing to watch or refuse to watch? It's entirely up to you. For every work, you are unique.

5. Perhaps you will be interested in the title Hₖ (X, Q) of this exhibition, which comes from Hodge's conjecture: under what conditions can a rough geometry be homeomorphic with the smooth shape described by the equation? The good news is that if you can solve it, you will get $1 million from the Clay Institute of Mathematics in Massachusetts.

6. The exhibition label includes two sides: A and B. You can read both sides, or you can read side A/side B only. Of course, you can refuse to read. You are free.
