Pathology is a medical discipline that studies the development of disease and elucidates its nature, often in relation to the human body. On the other hand, as artists, we study the reality that we live in. In today’s China, where economic myths and social ills, as well as advanced technology and ancient traditions coexist, ‚regurgitation‘ and ‚indigestion‘ are becoming the norm. In this social context, a large number of video artists are criticizing and reflecting on such times, history, memory and local reality. The works in this exhibition are selected from such artists, their work, like medical ultrasounds, CTs and MRI scans, map our situation and the current state of society through different perspectives, data and images, revealing the potential and imperceptible lesions of society through specific methodologies and aesthetics.

THIS EXHIBITION IS A PART OF CHINESE FILM+ CHINESE FILM AND VIDEO FESTIVAL HAMBURG 2023
