A Fly Enters. Immense Breath of the SEA: Virtual Exhibition
2022
2022.09 - 2022.11
The online curatorial project of the experimental music and sound project titled “A Fly Enters. Immense Breath of the SEA” implemented from 2020 to 2021 by Open Contemporay Art Center (OCAC) invited curators and artists from Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Myanmar to conduct an experimental online exhibition, to serve as a documentation of the project’s delivery and a basis for future expansion.
OCAC collaborated with Taiwanese generative artist Lin Yi-Wen to create a digital setting to present this online sound and experimental musical exchanges between Taiwan and Southeast Asia. The exhibition included video footages of four sound actions in 2020 and the results of the online residency in 2021. In addition, 16 joint creations from 48 artists, curators, and organizations involved in the project were selected and presented online. In addition to the works, the website also included four pieces of writing by artists and facilitators from different countries, reviewing the themes of their exchanges, and provide profound chronicles under the time in the pandemic and social unrest.

Open Contemporary Art Center
Since its foundation in 2001, the Open Contemporary Art Center (OCAC) has been offering curatorial opportunities while facilitating interdisciplinary exchanges, research, and publication. With the resources it continues to provide, OCAC seeks to dissolve the barrier between art and the general public, between lowbrow and highbrow, as it hopes that art will be more inclusive, democratic, and diverse when engaging in the public sphere.
