CASTELLA

- 1. Shanghai That Doesn't Exist (2022)

- 2. Everything is broken the same way nothing is (2023)

Castella 2122: A 100-year initiative for more expressions in post-humanism and altered states of consciousness.

The future of the next 100 years are not in us, but the younger generations that are being born, and yet to be born. We will solve global warming. We will discover new physics. We will have better cure for diseases, affordable space travel, new inventions, new music, new experiences, new social structures... that we now know not of. Existing weapon systems will become obsolete, so are old regimes, and mindless consumerism and senseless wars and bad politics.

We will get there. Our dreams are bigger than ourselves. There are much to human potentials that we do not know of. And I think that’s why we need arts. To explore. To challenge. To feel. To reconstruct. To find a certain new type of sentiment. To resonate. To think. To dream.
