The Installation Art of Odysseus 奥德修斯的装置艺术

The English version of the demo will be available in the upcoming week (after 7.28.2025).

“艺术等同于生命，不，它就是生命的形式。”
"Art equals life. Indeed, it is the modality of life."

你是一名生活朝五晚九的社畜，难得请假一下午看展，赶到艺术馆却已是闭馆时分。面对大片关闭了对外展览的区域，角落里那处冷清的小入口就仿佛你同样无人在意的人生，吸引着你踏入其中。

不该存在的广播提示音响起、自称是艺术家本人的怪咖突然现身……当你终于意识到自己身体的异样时，一切都太迟了。

You are a commuter who works from five every morning to nine every evening. It is rare for you to take an afternoon off to see an art exhibition, but you arrive at the art museum just as it is closing time. Facing the large area closed to the public, a small, desolate entrance in the corner is like your life that no one cares about, yet it attracts you to step into it.

As you hear the unusual broadcasting announcement, a freak claiming to be the artist of this exhibition suddenly appears and would love to give you a tour of his artworks. When you finally realise what is going on with your body, it is too late.

你已经回不去了……

You have passed the point of no return.

一个深秋的傍晚，一场荒诞离奇又暗潮涌动的装置艺术展，

两个人的命运在此被改写……

On a late fall evening, an absurdly bizarre and darkly surging installation art exhibition changed the lives of two people...
