Repetition Maximum (Artist Performance)


5pm-6pm, 30 October 2021
From JCCAC to RNH Space, Hong Kong

A performance for the duo exhibition “Too Good to Be True” and “Till Love Do Us Part”

“Repetition maximum” (RM) is a concept in weight training, referring to the most weight you can lift for a defined number of exercise movements. The performance is a voyage through time and space. Led by the artist and different media, surveying the bodies of our own and others, we re-evaluate the weight of our torsos in the society of the spectacle filled with digital images.


「最大重複次數」(RM)是一個健身中常用的概念,所指要求做某個動作能夠做到特定次數的情況下,此時舉重員能承受最大的重量是什麼。是次表演將此概念融入對人體的審視,把「特定次數」轉化為一種物理距離,藝術家透過對自身極限的挑戰,開展一段跨越時間和空間的旅程。藝術家透過不同媒介帶領觀者重新思考在充斥數碼圖像的景觀社會,我們肉身的重量。
