When it comes to the theme of "endorsement," curator Xu Xufeng said, "Artists' works are reconstructed, interpreted, and re disseminated through the dissemination of each audience during the exhibition process. They are endorsed and passed on to the next visitor, and each visitor will become a part of the exhibition." The exhibition cleverly uses the most common "#" tag element in the current new media environment, allowing each artist to add keywords to themselves and their works in the form of tags, becoming a microcosm of the artist's own characteristics and works. "This time, we are more embracing the online environment in the form of the exhibition, hoping to use these tags to help viewers better understand the artist's self-evaluation. Viewers can also use these tags for new dissemination and sharing," Xu Xufeng said.
