EIDOS is both the essence of art and the boundary artists continually seek to challenge. In EIDOS, form transcends the physical world, weaving through virtual dimensions, memory spaces, and social structures. It folds time, flows along the edge of perception, and reshapes itself between tradition and technology. The curatorial vision seeks not only to show how form shifts between the digital and the material, the real and the imagined, but to invite audiences into a multi-sensory site of experience—one where form subverts cognition and refracts the world.

A Dual Narrative of Time and Space
The exhibition opens like a breath held between two worlds—one alive with motion, the other suspended in stillness. As the visitor steps inside, they find themselves walking the seam between time and space. One half of the gallery hums with evolving installations—kinetic, interactive, constantly becoming. The other rests in contemplative quietude, its paintings and sculptures whispering across time in measured silence.
It is within this duality that the work of performance artists Ping Yan and Pelagia Athanasia Zimeri unfolds. Their piece, Reweaving, is not merely performed—it seeps into the very fabric of the space.Begins with the work Rainsonance by Qiqi and Yinzhe Qu, drawing the visitor’s attention from the electronic bodies outlined by rain to the real, living bodies of the performers. As the dancers move, the air hums with anticipation, their bodies in sync with the rhythms of space. Droplets meet sand, limbs stretch and spiral, and each gesture ripples outward like sound through water.
Reweaving, directed by SiYu Yang and choreographed by Ping Yan, draws the visitor deeper into this temporal tide. No longer an observer, the visitor becomes part of its rhythm. The dancers’ bodies bend, flicker, and flow with an intimacy that feels like breath shared between strangers. Time dilates. The sense of presence folds into theirs, as if perception itself has been rewoven into something new—alive, shifting, unbound.

Flowing Vision: Between the Real and the Virtual
Ommatidia, Mathr & Netz, 2025
Artists Mathr & Netz bring a layered depth to the exhibition with Ommatidia, a synesthetic audiovisual performance that mimics insect compound vision. Through splitting and reconstructing visual fields in response to audio cues, they create an uncanny fluidity of form. The audience becomes both observer and subject, as their bodies are absorbed into the morphing landscape of sound and sight. Here, form is not static—it is a condition in flux, shaped by time, perception, and technology.
The Morphology of Memory
Foremother, Eveleigh& Evans, 2025; Chronicle of an attic, Blandine Martin, 2024
At the heart of the exhibition hall, two striking sculptural works delve into the entanglement of form and memory: Foremother by Eveleigh Evans and Chronicle of an Attic by Blandine Martin.The former takes the form of a shrine, constructed from ritualistic materials and iridescent shells. The object transcends materiality, resonating in a spiritual dimension. The latter—a textile landscape composed of stitched, torn, and bound fabric—becomes an archive of tactile memory, where form emerges through emotional sedimentation. Together, these works offer a sensorial bridge between the physical and the spiritual, the remembered and the imagined. They invite viewers to re-experience form as a vessel for time, memory, and transformation.
Perceptual Architectures
Kits, Wenjing Fan; Space for the Sacred, Bissy Riva
The exhibition also presents two works that investigate the limits of perception: Space for the Sacred by Bissy Riva and Kits by Wenjing Fan. Inspired by How Forests Think and Runa cosmology, Riva’s layered paintings construct windows into the metaphysical, weaving together narratives of nature, spirit, and mortality. Fan, on the other hand, uses resin to craft miniature sculpture kits—model-like structures in which human figures and everyday objects become modular components. These kits reveal the systems beneath surface forms, proposing that our perception of reality is shaped by the assembly of elemental structures.
One work unfolds in the progression of time, the other in the static logic of arrangement—yet both interrogate how form builds perception.
The Edge of Form, the Rewiring of Perception
By bringing together traditional media with cutting-edge technologies like XR and immersive installation, EIDOS ignites dialogue between the physical and the virtual. The participating artists, drawn from diverse cultural backgrounds, weave a mosaic of Eastern and Western aesthetics, while also confronting philosophical, technological, and socio-political themes. More importantly, the exhibition dissolves the conventional boundaries of static display: many works are activated through interactivity, projection, and immersive experience, transforming spectators into participants. Here, perception is not a passive act—it is a site of transformation.
