“Engage with the artwork and distort your own perception. Grab a friend to help take a photo. Position yourself so that your face lines up with the fragmented face in the artwork. Snap a pic and see how it has changed.” Hu Huiming Hu Huiming This series of painting engage the observer in a visual game and invite him to question his perception of reality. “Engage with the artwork and distort your own perception. Grab a friend to help take a photo. Position yourself so that your face lines up with the fragmented face in the artwork. Snap a pic and see how it has changed.” Exactly thirty years have passed since the fall of the Berlin Wall. It was the 1989, a year of transformation and of historical events as for example the World Wide Web invention. Coming to art, instead, at the Center Pompidou was inaugurated the exhibition Les Magiciens de la Terre, the first major international exhibition that united western artists with other worlds, at that time considered very far, if not exotic. Globalization was therefore coming to swift steps. But returning to the image of the Wall, for us Westerners there is no suggestion (and today no celebration) that does not refer to that extraordinary need to break down barriers for a new desire for freedom. On the other hand, every wall that is erected proposes the sense of limit, as if history had really taught us nothing. The Wall is also the main theme of Hu Huiming's installation, but the inspiration feeds once again on the relationship with the culture of origin. Inside each cement brick that forms this barrier, a pressed book is hidden, which can no longer be accessed or read. Hu Huiming Born in Jingdezhen, China, 1990, based in Italy.
