All along the hallway, a gigantic volume of nothingness. The end of the hallway consists of the words “concepts in rehab” written in ordinary industrial fluorescent light tubes. “Concepts in rehab” relate to many things: Phillip K. Dick author of Total Recall, and'Do androids dream of electric sheep?' Also known as'Blade Runner'. Among many other novels. And his drug use.
It also refers to the relation between photography and philosophical concepts, like truth, cultural sensibility, eroticism, identity, validity etc. and metaphorically projecting them as individuals into a drug abuse rehabilition program: meaning the show.

I. An exhibition centered around the work, but a performing exhibition centered around the artist's actions
. Because a photographer is a living person, he engages in many activities and actions. The photographer, like everyone else, always breathes, takes care of the muscles and nerves. Although that is the essence of the photographer, the exhibition always shows only the resulting dead image. If it were an exhibition, it would have to show a living person instead of a dead image. This exhibition shows the various activities of the photographer. He will talk, think, doze, rest, eat and drink coffee. And he takes pictures, chooses, edits, and calls. All of this will be shown in the exhibition hall. The photographer may have a conversation with the guest he or she invited, chat with the audience, or do a workshop according to a special program.
II. Knowledge Curating The
most important item on display this time is knowledge. The purpose is to collect and show knowledge about photography in a holistic way. Knowledge will be presented through diagrams, key words or symbol systems. Concepts about the production and consumption of photography, ideas, attributes, history, criticism, etc. will be displayed along with the coordinates of the knowledge surrounding him. Photos will be presented in the form of materials rather than works, and visitors will be'reading knowledge' rather than'seeing works'.
