Courtesy of Taipei Fine Arts Museum<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The exhibition takes place in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. In it, &#8220;walking&#8221; serves as the conceptual starting point, &#8220;crack&#8221; alludes to the contemporary state of constant struggle, and &#8220;walking the crack&#8221; suggests the search for possible paths to a solution. Human life began with walking, and humans developed language to communicate with one another. As walking and language co-evolved, they endowed cities and cultures with rich imagery. In the exhibition, &#8220;crack&#8221; also implies a double meaning \u2013 an experience of walking in a space, and the possibility of thinking innovatively to overcome our conundrums. The lines and lattices formed in &#8220;Walking the Crack&#8221; connect art with daily life, artists with viewers, artworks with spaces. The viewing and reading of the exhibition are drawn together into a cycle, which implies the cycle of birth and perishing.<\/p>\n<p>Among many other works, the exhibition includes the paintings of <b>Hilo Chen<\/b>, placed throughout the exhibition. Depicting such themes as walking, dialogue and interaction, they imply the concept of &#8220;between.&#8221; In the video work <i>Touch<\/i>, <b><span class=\"xn-person\">Janine Antoni<\/span> <\/b>engages with the horizon by walking a tightrope.
