Fellowship x @artxcode_io are proud to present: RECURSIONS 遞迴 → A solo exhibition of new works by @sougwen at @ArtBasel Hong Kong 2026, the artist’s first solo booth at the fair. VIP Opening: March 25, 2026 On view: March 26–29, 2026 ↓ Full details below

→ About the artist: Sougwen 愫君 Chung (b. 1985) is a Chinese-Canadian artist and researcher, widely regarded as a pioneer in human–machine collaboration. Their work MEMORY (Drawing Operations Unit: Generation_2) is part of the permanent collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, becoming the first AI model collected by a major cultural institution. Chung’s multidisciplinary practice spans installation, drawing, performance, and sculpture in dialogue with robotics, machine learning, and bio-sensing. Since 2015, they have developed the Drawing Operations series, a landmark inquiry into the aesthetics of symbiosis between human and machine. Named one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People in AI and honored with its Global Impact Award, Chung is the founder of SCILICET, an experimental studio based in London. 🔗 Full biography →

→ 關於這個系列： RECURSIONS 標誌著從現場表演到繪畫的關鍵擴展，將繪畫、繪圖、機器人技術和基於光的裝置結合在一起，探討當手勢不再由單一的手創作，而是通過人類與機器之間的反饋而產生時，手勢的起始點在哪裡。

本次展示的核心是 RECURSION 0 (2026)，一幅宏偉的卷軸。這是一個動態機器人系統，基於數十年的 Chung 的手勢數據和響應式生物傳感器輸入進行訓練，實時延伸並回響藝術家的動作，於亞麻布上形成一個累積的表面，記錄著具身意圖與機械反應之間的遞歸交流。

六幅相關的畫作，RECURSION 1–6 (2026)，將這一持續的過程提煉為離散的迭代。當卷軸展現持續性時，畫作則將其固定：標記的累積沒有層級，而剩下的不是起源與回聲之間的區別，而是一個單一的分層表面，其中兩者同時存在。

RECURSION Dataset 1314 transposes the investigation of gesture into light. The dataset comprises 1,314 drawings, invoking the Chinese homophone 一三一四 ("one three one four"), which sounds like 一生一世 ("for a lifetime”), speaking to the devotional commitment of artistic practice. Three decades of the artist's drawing data, the last ten co-produced with the D.O.U.G. robotic system, cycle across a suspended LED mesh. The traces shift in real time as accumulated attention, registered through brainwave activity, is compressed into luminous, slowly evolving forms. The work proposes attention as duration: sustained, and made visible.

這些作品共同延續了鍾氏對他所稱的「操作藝術」的持續探索：這是一個關於人類、機器和環境之間共同創作的協議、倫理和條件的框架。在這裡，合作超越了方法，演變成一種生態系統，其中能動性被分配，共存變得無法與創作區分開來。
