Are we......? Am I......?

In the age of post-globalization, are we still connected to the entity of humanity? In the chaotic world, can empathy bridge the gaps between us? As the Babel falls, into countless fragments of parallel realities – have we ever existed as a collective of humanity? Moreover, “no man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river, and he is not the same man” – do I ever exist as “one person”? 

 

We are all concurrent beings

Media implosion, where modern media technologies collapse time, space, and boundaries between public and private, leads to a hyperconnected, instantaneous reality that blurs distinctions between mediated representation and lived experience. Such process dissolves the original structure of things and phenomenon, re-sequenced into spectacular clusters of data and message, which is discontinued and scattered like a film montage. When our presence become “concurrent presence”, we are not in presence anymore –  we lose the point that we can be anchored to, and the existence of things become a blurred collection.

Concurrent art is series of art experiments that explores the multiplicity of possibilities within objects and experiences by breaking them apart and presenting their varied states. Unlike traditional media, it combines multiple sensory inputs—visual, auditory, and tactile—to create layered and concurrent narratives that challenge perception and redefine causality.

Here, elements are fragmented and reassembled, either remaining independent or reconnecting in new forms. This approach generates sensory overload and non-linear experiences, pushing viewers to reconsider time, space, and causality. Inspired by practices like Cubism and shamanistic rituals, Concurrentism aims to construct immersive, multi-dimensional environments that connect ancient spirituality with contemporary art, prompting audiences to experience concurrent realities rather than a single, linear narrative.

Arguing the conssistency and deviation of collective memories, connections and identities, the art series use new art forms to explore the dynamics of symbol, cultures, humanity and societies. Related to generative technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, the artworks initiate critical response to the cognition issues caused by technologies.

Do we share life and memories in a consistent world?
