Some of the objects here are Ouyang Chun’s personal belongings, like his laptop he accidentally dropped into water while bathing and the painting board he used everyday when he was still an art student. And some are what he collected, like the palanquin. These objects were random and seemingly unrelated, but now all connected with a huge stainless column. For Ouyang, enormous amount of objects are exposed and consumed in one’s daily life. "Material" constitutes the world. Material exists in the form of objects, and inevitably become a spiritual carrier. Along with enrichment of material in contemporary world, the spectacle that people coexist with debris rightly reflects our current strength, beauty and predicament. Infinity Column symbolises the process of consuming of materials and life, inviting viewers to experience the sense of poetry and deterioration conveyed by objects. Infinity Column depicts the nature of various materials in the field of politics, culture, physics and function through a stainless column.
