拾萬空间(杭州)将于2023年11月4日带来张东辉的个展:为光延续一分钟。展览名字源自艺术家2023年的同名影像作品——一次简短地,让光继续点亮一分钟的尝试。

总有一些事会让人耿耿于怀或念念不忘,然后,忍不住想要做些什么。可能是一次行走或闲逛,一次不经意的偶遇,或者一个无意义的动作;甚至,只是百无聊赖,一个恍惚的刹那,不知不觉看向脚下,或者莫名其妙地注视远方……然后,就在某个瞬间,一个想法被“点亮”,猝不及防,也不可名状,但终归让人念兹在兹,想要做一些变化。

这些微小的事物就在张东辉的日常生活里,它们构成了本次展览作品的动机——看似平淡无奇,却与切身的肉体经验相关。但微小的太容易被人忽视,因为太普遍而见怪不怪,进而变得习以为常。但张东辉就在大多数人的视而不见中尝试干预与行动,或者,在看似既成事实的钢板上“跳跃”,从而带来一些颤动——与他人共振,并让坚固的松动,以及,让乏味和无趣变得鲜活——哪怕只有“一分钟”。


Hunsand Space (Hangzhou) is pleased to present Zhang Donghui's solo exhibition: "To Extend Light by One Minute" from November 4, 2023. The exhibition's name is derived from the artist's homonymous video work in 2023—an attempt to briefly let light continue shining for one minute.

There are always some things that linger in one's mind or remain unforgettable, and then, one can't help but want to do something. It might be a walk or a stroll, a casual encounter, or a meaningless gesture; even just out of boredom, a moment of absent-mindedness, looking down or gazing at the distance without reason... Then, at some moment, an idea is "lit up," sudden and indescribable, but it remains on one's mind, making one want to bring about a change.

These small things are part of Zhang Donghui's daily life, and they constitute the motivation for the works in this exhibition—seemingly ordinary but related to tangible bodily experiences. Yet, small things are too easy to overlook because of their commonality, and they become habitual. But Zhang Donghui tries to intervene and take action where most people choose to look away, or to "leap" on seemingly established facts, thus bringing about some tremors—resonating with others, making the solid become loose, and making the mundane and uninteresting come alive, even if just for "one minute."
