Video and the Third person's perception attempts to reveal how video functions, the way video serves audience, and the effects it promotes on audiences' bodies. Video promotes our sense of spatial awareness and our own relationship with physical selves, while presenting narrative.

The body of video is present and absent within the machine turning on and off. The materialism that video is entitled to stands out by the way it's presented. This exhibition shows three different mythologies on how the artists deal with the material of video, as well as the way it's broadcast to physically influence the orientation of audiences's bodies.

The artist Wang Ding-Yeh’s new single-channel video work Wakabayashi Junko is inspired by the history of a specific family archive. He uses the perspective of tracking in video and collaged image to capture time. Through Super Taboo Artist Su Hui-Yu makes a video that parallels the process of books binding through a dual-channel video installation, this artwork is presented in the horizontal viewing format to reveal those forbidden rebelliousness, lust and sexual impulses in Taiwan’s past. Artist Wu I-Yeh’s Wave uses the moving pictures explores the spatial correlation between camera movement and medium while presenting acoustic effect and multi-spaces in the video work.
