OVERLOCKED THE DAY BEFORE

摘要

The work of Pierre Huyghe blurs the distinction between what is reality and what is fiction, revealing the experiences he constructs to be as plausible as anything we would encounter in daily life. And though the projects often appear to be somewhat playful, they address significant social issues and reflect a communal yearning for experience and action in a manner that is just off-centre from simple utopianisM. The projects presented here are a small selection from a body of work that draws from a range of strategies and materials most commonly associated with stage design - lighting, sound, fog and other such means of atmospheric theatrics- and transplants them, along with the stories that accompany them, far from the security of the stage, instead embedding them into the environments we live in.
