▌Artwork Introduction
The artwork uses a group of low, glowing objects to stage a process that measures sunlight, shape, and position on the floor. It makes the physical form momentarily dissolve into space, leaving only the distribution, direction, and angle of shadows, implying a vertical form once imagined through the interplay of light and shadow. It appears as the outline of an absence subtly marked by sunlight, or as a spatial imagination slowly pieced together by viewers as they move around.
In times when humanity lacked a full grasp of the connection between their positions and celestial bodies, shadows served as clues to understand the world. People relied on specific moments when the body, the Earth’s surface, and sunlight aligned to make measurements. Today, software and data enable us to calculate and estimate the positions of light and shadow at any time with a simple click. These two modes of viewing create a striking contrast in the sense of time and bodily awareness. Foreseen encapsulates this gap within the exhibition site, while the light’s position is predetermined, the act of viewing still unfolds through moving closer, turning around, and pausing. The lights set close to the floor resemble a cluster of shadows that have arrived early, awaiting viewers to walk among them and envision a space not yet fully formed but already gently touched by the sun.

▌About the Artist|KOU Tak-Leong
Kou’s artistic practice unfolds through light, space, time, and bodily perception, focusing on how the body experiences subtle shifts in position, distance, sunlight, and movement. His works often stem from measurement, positioning, and observational methods, reintroducing the human body into the realm of perception. In moments when images are still forming and light continues to change, he patiently waits for a certain visibility to slowly emerge. In recent years, he has also contemplated how contemporary technology reshapes our perception. Between the visible and the invisible, the predicted and the experienced, he creates a space that remains not yet fully articulated, inviting viewers to re-perceive the relationship among light, time, and themselves.
