This is an era deeply saturated by technology. As a digital native, the artist Shen Tongzhou has continually paid attention to each new present moment — how people record and watch events. The unease and excitement produced through this lived experience led him to set out from the initial question of "how to see the unseen," beginning an unending interrogation of himself and the digital environment around him. He regards himself entirely as a model to be disassembled — one that can be deeply excavated, analyzed, translated, and made to re-derive the above process once more. This process lets thought seep into digital media, thereby generating a continuous dialogue. Within this game, he searches for the gaps of resistance and self-defined rules, while also experiencing a back-and-forth of advancing one step and retreating two, of retrospection and reflection. In silence, information scatters irregularly yet remains connected, like colonies of bacteria, and the body is gradually dissolved in the process.

At this VORTEX titled "The Rabbit Hole Without Beginning or End," Shen Tongzhou transforms the traces of multi-layered, iterative computation into a perceptible field, constructing a vertical structure as endless and indescribable as a "backroom," one that falls without end. Through multiple media — text, painting, oral narration, computer operation, space, and video — he leads viewers to deduce together that initial question, wandering through time that has diffused into countless fragments.

About the artist：Shen Tongzhou

Artist, currently based between Hangzhou and the internet. As the son of a professional esports player, he grew up surrounded by video games and electronic devices from an early age. For him, any operation on an electronic device — whether a game, a piece of software, or any other digital medium — is a kind of game. He explores the virtual spaces within software, and the way software processes and generates external reality, while setting up conditions to experiment with the interactions between humans, machines, and networks. Working primarily across video, painting, and spatial installation, he creates immersive, absorbing environments that guide viewers to discover the latent factors permeating the world around them.
