About the Exhibition

Being Parallel presents a comprehensive solo exhibition by renowned media artist Masaki Fujihata, exploring the concept of parallel existence in our contemporary digital age. The exhibition features a collection of interactive installations that examine how we navigate between physical and virtual realities.

Through a series of carefully curated works, Fujihata invites visitors to question the boundaries between different states of being and consciousness. The exhibition creates spaces where multiple realities can coexist, allowing audiences to experience the artist's unique vision of parallel worlds.

This exhibition builds upon concepts introduced in Fujihata's BeHere project, while exploring themes that resonate with other HKACT presentations like WYSIWYG by Jeffrey Shaw, which similarly questions the nature of visual reality.

Exhibition Themes

The exhibition explores several key themes including the nature of presence, the relationship between observer and observed, and the ways in which technology mediates our understanding of reality. Each work in the exhibition contributes to a larger conversation about what it means to exist in parallel states.

Curatorial Statement

"Being Parallel challenges visitors to reconsider their relationship with technology and space. Fujihata's work creates opportunities for reflection on how we exist simultaneously in multiple realities." - Exhibition Curator

These themes of parallel existence and technological mediation are further explored in VoV: Morphogenesis of Values and discussed in depth during A Forum Act symposium.
