评论者: 王凯梅 艺术家李⽂光正在上海The Artling空间的展览以《科外幻笔记》为名的展览，⾸先把观众带⼊了⼀种仿佛与科学有关的奇妙感觉（Sense  of  Wonder)。⾛进展厅迎⾯看到墨绿⾊墙⾯上挂着的两幅作品，分别是以教学⿊板为底的纸本拼贴，《跟号⽔ 2020-II》的画⾯中央是⼀⻓条难以确定形状的⾊斑，⽆数细密的⽹格线将其围绕其中，各种形状的⼏何图形与散落周边的线条共同构成更加复杂的圆形、三⻆形、四边形，画⾯散发着⼀种研究数学的深奥⽓质，再加上⽤红蓝中性    书写在纸上和后⾯⿊板上的各种算式，更增强了图像散发的求索未知的朦胧感。当我凑上前在那些貌似根号、分数、括号、⼩数点中试图辨识或许某个我能认识的算式时，艺术家告诉我，这些算式和画⾯中的图像⼀样，都是⼀个⼈的想象和虚构。

WOAW Gallery & Case Studyo present SANDWORM by CHARLIE ROBERTS

WOAW Gallery and  Case Studyo have worked together to present “Sandworm” an exhibition by American artist Charlie Roberts, which is now open from now till 19th july at WOAW Gallery at 5 Sun Street in Hong Kong. The show features various mediums: paintings and sculpture, resulting in a diverse and dynamic exhibition that draws on cultural and science fiction references. The title “Sandworm” is inspired by American science fiction novelist Frank Herbert's work "Dune" published in 1965. In his novel, Frank Herbert imagines a future on the planet Arrakis thousands of years later where a rare and holy drug named “Melange” is sought for by humanity. The usage of the drug allows the ability to predict the future and prolong life. The protagonist in the novel is determined to get his hands on “Melange”, however, is met by the gatekeeper of the treasure, the Sandworm. The giant Sandworm is able to detect any vibrations on the ground and will devour anyone in search of “Melange”. Therefore, the show titled "Sandstorm" takes its name from this reference: the gatekeeper to a highly prized magical drug.
