Does the concept of "infinity" truly exist in the world, or is it merely a human fantasy?

Artist Sim Chan observes the ever-changing urban landscape in his daily life and expresses his thoughts and experiences through art. In his latest series, he continues to explore the theme of urban development through a collection of light art installations, presenting various scenes of "infinity" that lead the audience to traverse between reality and surrealism.

The series "In Endlessness" portrays a multitude of scenarios, ranging from trivial objects in daily life to massive city projects. The city replicates itself endlessly in mirrors, with infinite skyscrapers sprouting on limited land, stretching towards the horizon. Reality and reflections intertwine, expanding into infinite landscapes, revealing humanity's boundless desires and pursuits, while also carrying the burden of endless consumption and destruction. beings need aspirations in order to step out of their comfort zones and find the motivation to change themselves and the world. However, as the fuel that drives motivation, aspirations gradually inflate into bottomless desires, constantly replicating and proliferating to satisfy the ever-changing world.

We fantasize that all resources in the world can be continuously accessed, just like the endless scenery before the little figure's eyes—a plank that extends infinitely, a telephone that elongates infinitely, a shipping container with infinite space, a glacier that melts infinitely, a city that expands infinitely... "Infinity landscapes" reflected through mirrors. The mirrors reflect the little figure's imagination, where desires can endlessly proliferate, imagining a world without limits, where everything is accessible, and everything can be destroyed.

As a contributor to the destruction of the world, artist Sim Chan attempts to reflect on the distorted and deformed aspects of daily life through the scenes presented before the little figure's eyes.

世界上真的存在著「無盡」嗎？抑或只是人類的幻想？

藝術家陳閃於日常觀察城市面貌，以藝術方式紀錄並表達他的所知所感。這次他繼續以城市發展為主題，以一系列的燈光藝術裝置作品，呈現出一個個「無盡」的景象，帶領觀眾穿梭於現實與超現實之間。

《在無盡中》作品系列透過各種各樣的情景，由日常生活中瑣碎的微細物件以至宏大的城市項目，城市在鏡像中不斷複製自己，無限大樓在有限土地上增生，一直往地平線延伸，現實和鏡像虛實交錯，膨脹成無盡風景，揭示出人類無限的慾望與追求，同時亦背負著無盡的消耗與破壞。

人必需有所渴求，才會踏出舒適圈，才會有改變自身和世界的動力。然後，作為動機的燃料，渴求已不敷使用，它慢慢膨脹成無底的慾望，不斷複製﹑增生，滿足不斷變形的世界。

我們幻想世界上所有資源都可以一直取用，像小人眼前的無盡風景一樣—— 一塊無限延伸的拖板、一部無限延長的電話、一個無限空間的貨櫃、一座無限融化的冰川、一個無限擴張的城市……以鏡面反射複製出來的「無盡之景」。鏡面反射了小人的想像，想像慾望可以無止境地增生，想像一切都沒有盡頭，一切都可以取用，一切都可以破壞。

作為破壞世界的一分子，藝術家陳閃嘗試以小人眼前的景象，反思已扭曲變形的日常。
