Poster of Exhibition Trembling Grounds: Push-Pull Practice, Visual Design by Xin Tan.

Witness the last and also take a moment to reflect on the values we hold — polycentric, becoming, collaboration. By returning to our workshop explorations and interventions, and revisiting the crossings, tensions, and temporary structures built in the process, we step into the exhibition’s dynamic exploration of instability, transformation, and rebellion, transcending temporal and spatial boundaries.

Exhibition Trembling Grounds: Push-Pull Practice dismantles and reconfigures the boundaries of art-making. The show spotlights nine artists — Deborah Castillo, Roman Sheppard Dawson, Sasha Fishman, Elli Fotopoulou, Maya Gurantz, Scott Keightley, Lucia Shuyu Li, Andrew Luk, and Yuhan Shen — whose works delve into multi-centered discourses and span disciplines including performance, video, interdisciplinary sculpture, and site-specific installation. By bringing together these constantly evolving practices, Trembling Grounds examines the concept of "crossing" as a transformative act — crossing subjects, media, languages, physical walls, restrictions, and so on. Crossing is not merely a movement but a rebellion, an active, dynamic force that traverses media and unsettles the familiar.
