That night, we grouped around the flames, talking about each other’s shadows.

After the three-day-two-night trip to Kaohsiung in July, the month-long 〈Chambers+〉 experience with #ffffff in November, as well as the months of intensive discussions and exchanges of ideas, we returned to VT Artsalon, which was situated at section three of Xinsheng North Road.

As an in-between space, 〈Chambers+ 〉provides young artists with a place of belonging. Young artists, each with their own grasp of spaces, time, and mediums, would attempt to express their imaginations toward art within restrictions, which manifested in #ffffff’s art practices in the previous stage; we coexisted in the in-between space, albeit with our own independent voices. This return to VT Artsalon is a departure from 〈Chambers+〉 with the attempt to proceed to the edges of the unknown and to find our own coordinates. Each person who leaves 〈Chambers+〉 is progressing toward different quadrants, and 〈＿: From Chambers+ to＿〉 is only one of the aspects. As the creative process extended to six months and the imaginations of space widened to include the realm between Taipei and Kaohsiung, the 11 young artists explored where the destinations were and how wide the battlefield could become to deal with the creative problems that they faced through the southbound three-day-two-night trip and several months of discussions. This is what we hope the exhibition will reveal. We also hope to see the perspectives of more young artists through our own works.
