Presentation of the Taipei Fine Arts Museum:

Limbo Zone

In reference to the main theme of the biennial, this exhibition is dedicated to an imaginary zone between "dream" and "conflict". In the sense of "limbo" (Latin: limbus) as an in-between, an untouchable boundary area, it is about both the subconscious in dreams themselves, as well as the imagining of utopias, which comes into conflict with reality.
