Memory predominates reality; we can keep nothing but memories stored as images, which is a "copy" of the reality, but not entirely the same. Residing in the memories of the past may feel safe and comfortable, because you can control and have control of them. On the other hand, reality is dynamic, dangerous, and uncontrollable. People can be easily carried away by the currents of harsh reality and lose their ego. From memories of the past, people can look back at themselves. In reality, people can earn new experiences and thus expand their potential. Through Room of Memories, we hope for the viewers to confront their own memories. Would you stay in a room dangerous and uncontrollable? In memory, where do you ruminate on your past memories? Or rather, would you step into harsh reality to get new ones? How long at which?
However, there isn't the right answer. reality? How does the reality that is in the mirror of the virtual perception permeate back to our real life?
