Hustle and bustle exists not only in the mundane city,
but also in our state of mind.

We often look without truly seeing, and hear without truly listening,
our senses are isolated from the external world as well as to oneself.

Circular Reflection is a short and temporary realm, a moment when time and space is frozen,
let us meet with our own self and our surroundings again,
only when we try to feel will we realise our sense is so limitless, so far-reaching, so deep in ourselves

繁囂不僅在於身外的都市，
更在於人們的思緒心念。

很多時候，我們看到但沒有真的看見，聽到但沒有真的聽見，
感官都跟外頭隔絕，亦同時跟自己隔絕。

「大觀圓」，是一個短暫的場域，一刻停注的時空，
讓大家與自己與周遭重新相遇，
原來可以感知如此遼闊風景，又如此深入自身。

Participatory Installation

The three groups of ‘circular’ installation set off to minutely examine oneself, observe the surroundings, and take in the illusionary imageries, discovering different levels of ‘observation’ as well as imaginations and experiences it may induce. 

1. The Grand Spectacle 
   A dialogue from within occurs at the moment when you focus your gaze.  
   
   
2. The Dual Perspective 
   From looking at this shore, and the other shore, the real and illusionary space mingles and extends, going circular and back to present.
   
   
3. The Abstract Cosmos 
   The imagery is dream-and-magic like, yet the so-called reality may also be perceived from the mist-and-dew like illusionary perception.
   
   

參與式裝置

三組以「圓」出發的裝置，從微觀自身、觀察周遭、到感知幻景意像，發現「觀察」的不同層次與隨此引發的想像與體會。

1. 大觀 -
   注視凝聚的一頃刻，與自己的一場對話。
   
   
2. 觀觀
   放眼此岸、彼岸，真實與幻境的接連與延展，環迴又回到當下。
   
   
3. 觀空
   意象如夢似幻，從虛空的境／影像中感知如霧如露的所謂真實。

The lawn can be seen as a stage; everyone can be seen as a performer with our vision open.

In the same space, it can also be incarnated as a ‘library’, only experience can be borrowed here, not books. 

It is not only a performance but also an experience. 
The performer immerses in the crowd, intimately leading the audience to enter the sensational awareness between performance and experience. 

The design of the experiential performance widens the sense of audience, letting them experience the sound, environment, and people, so as to open up the space for vision and imagination, and aware once again the different sensing abilities. Besides visuals, we can also experience the surroundings through hearing and touch, and finally reflect on oneself.  

歷驗式演出

一片草地，可以看成是一個舞台；換一個角度，自己也就成為了演出者。
同一個場域，它又可以化現成「圖書館」，借閱經驗。

既是演出，更是體驗。
表演者介入人群，以更貼近的方式，引領觀眾進入界乎演出／歷驗的感觀覺察。

演出／歷驗的設計以拓寬觀眾的感知，去體驗空間環境聲音人與人，從而打開意像聯想，重新覺察自己的不同感知能力。視覺以外，我們亦可以從聆聽、觸感等去體驗周圍，再回顧自身。

Frozen Moment 此時此刻

In the twinkling of an eye, time is cooling, the space is frozen, each pair of audience and performer share the instant moment. Having navigated by sound - unfamiliar but intimate, close yet distant - listen to the bit and pieces of our lives, revisit our memories of fantasy, and co-build a moment of our mental landscape together.

頃刻，時間涼了，空間封存，一對對觀者及演出者，共享當下，由聲音領航，陌生又親密，貼近又疏離，一起細聽生活碎語，一起重訪回憶幻景，共建片刻的內心風景。

We Knew Nothing of Each Other 常常/不常

Unusualness is hidden in our everyday life, restraining not only artistic creation but also discovery. Everywhere can be a stage, even if there is no ‘real’ performer. We find people in the crowd, we discover stories - surprising imagination and ideas can be sprung up in no time.

日常中潛藏著不尋常，原來非關創造只在發現，什麼地方都可以是舞台，即使沒有「真正」的表演者。在人群中發現人、發現故事、讓奇想忽發。

Library of Experience 歷驗借閱

Imagine a lawn as an invisible ‘library of experience’ with a series of ‘experiences’ for you to read for reference. Just that this series of ‘collection’ is completely autonomous, destined to share if it’s meant to be.

想像草地成為一個無形「歷驗參考圖書館」，一系列的「體驗」可供參閱。只是這系列的「收藏」絕對有自主性，有緣則分享。

The Abstract Cosmos 觀空 (sound & vision 聲影歷驗)

A landscape of circular imageries and continuous audio-visuals are on the smoky bubbles.

在泡影煙霧之上，是圓環的風景、連綿的音像。
