In theatre, breaking the fourth wall means breaking the wall of illusion, this series of

plan view paintings has removed the ‘fifth wall’—the ceiling in each of the depicted

rooms. What is exposed, and for us to reflect on, is the relation of production in the

world of art. The artwork is not made solely by the artist; it is also shaped by curators,

art dealers, collectors, gallerists, handlers, and artisans. Each scene is an episode

compartmentalized from a larger block. From this perspective, we are no longer

absorbed in the scene. The distance allows critical detachment and the opportunity

to laugh at ourselves like characters in a comedy.

这幅画是从我听到或读到的八卦、轶事和故事中提炼出的复合图像。 它并不指代任何具体的案例，而是反映了策展人与艺术家、女性与男性之间反复出现的紧张关系，以及在这种二元对立中不断变化的位置。 策展人站在艺术家面前，被绑住，满身伤痕，等待着被教训另一堂“课”。 艺术家变成了一只需要被驯服的动物，策展人则是维持秩序的动物园管理员。
