    They are Jingwei, reborn across millennia—each artwork a stone cast into the sea of exhibition. At the threshold of myth and machine, they explore the impossible. Their stories of defiance echo in our world, urging us to feel the power within—the ancient force that still drives us forward.

    XIE Qun

    Xie Qun's art practice is presented in a variety of media, including installation, sculpture, video, and painting, focusing on religious anthropology, geography, and folk witchcraft. Based on  field research to explore the relationship between ancient tradition and modern society. Through the construction of semi-closed space rituals, Sakuin explores the extension of the current "psychic" matter and body sympathies with divine will, and attempts to invent multiple narratives of the body  mythological beyond the sight of history.
