Inspired by a poem by Rosamond S. King, the exhibition unfolds through breathing as contraction and expansion. Qiu Ruixiang turns inward, rendering solitary figures shaped by shadow, anxiety, and emotional density. Peter Welz expands the body through moving image, fragmenting it into shifting, luminous forms. Together, the works trace a movement between interior and exterior, where identity dissolves and re-emerges through shadow.
