Quiet Night Thought

The exhibition title riffs on Quiet Night Thought (Tang Dynasty), the name of a poem written by romanticist Li Bai in which he uses metaphors to express nostalgia and reluctant obedience towards imperial obligation. Framed around the question: ‘How has technology influenced people’s perception of reality (real and unreal)?’, this exhibition aims to reexamine the constructed notion of reality in a post-pandemic context by weaving empathy into the selected practices.
