Ruins are the continuation of people’s past lives. Therefore, the ruins could be seen as the places of nostalgia and reflection. Every ruin is its own story and the fictional nature in it reflects the real life and memory. Regardless of its scale, it could reflect the entire world as well.

废墟是人们过去生活的一种延续。因此废墟成为人们怀旧和反思的场所。每一座废墟都是一个故事，其中所具有的虚构性折射出现实的生活和记忆。无论其规模的大小，都能够折射出整个世界。

​

Ruins are not static, but constantly changing and developing, just like the cities where people live. They “survive in the present, and strongly and profoundly influence the present, including the future."

作为遗迹的废墟并非是静止的,而是不断地变化和发展的，就像人们生活的城市一样。它们“存活在当下，并强烈深刻的影响着现在，包括未来。”

The series of photography for this exhibition is a related product of two long-term projects "Trace of the city" and "Endeictic space", initiated by Zhi Space and Generator Space.

本次展览中的该摄影系列属于Zhijian Workshop + Zhi空间的长期项目“城市的迹忆”及发生器空间的长期项目“症状空间”的关联产物。

 

Starting from the memories in their photographs, four exhibitors re-examine ruins through their lens.This whole result from the common understanding and re-construction of the photographs, become independent image units in the Contemporary Cloud Glass Photography Exhibition curated by Uncertainty Space.  This exhibition about Ruins is also regarded as the off-site growth and the 3rd Anniversary of the space art exhibition:RELIOUE OF THE LIGHT held at Zhi Space,2018.

四位参展人从各自摄影作品中的记忆出发，以对作为废墟的遗迹重新审视，形成共同认知和搭建；并以此，成为不定空间策划的“当代克劳德镜”摄影展中的独立影像单元；同时也作为Zhi空间曾举办的“光的遗迹”空间艺术展览三周年纪念的延续和异地生长。
