Progression, Regression!

2019

 Two-channel, HD video, 01'13

Our society was not built in one day but with the appearance of rules and knowledge instead. While new rules and knowledge arise, the old ones were overthrown. The viewers, acting like someone who was crushing the rules, were considered as politicians and scholars who were announcing their statements. They destroyed the old when creating the new out of it.

Sometimes we do not know whether what we are doing is improving our society—Industrialisation causes deforestation and global warming; commercialism leads to fetishism… The act of audiences smashing pieces became a presentation of different phenomena in our society. When we are progressing, are we regressing? Referring to E.E Cummings’s poems, “pro-regressing”.
