Yu Siuan's Solo Exhibition "Klein Hurtz α Eternal Garden" at Yu-Hsiu Museum of Art
From Greenhouse Program (2012), Eternal Garden (2013), Klein Hurtz – Greenhouse Mimicry (2018), to Klein Hurtz α Eternal Garden (2023), Yu Siuan has consistently worked on the Klein Hurtz series to gradually build, or restore in a way, a fictional world posited in the distant future. This world is set against a backdrop of a future society pervaded with technological optimism embraced by humanity. Through the highly realistic representation of Yu’s painting, spectators seem to be immersed in unique scene from a sci-fi film—it is the laboratory of Dr. Klein Hurtz, as well as a site that amalgamates machines, biotechnology and artificial intelligence to make human rebirth not just possible but a reality.
