In “WIFI,” nothing is visibly rendered to the exhibition space, if not accounting the tens of wireless routers hidden somewhere out of sight. The routers send large numbers of signals to the terminal ends-mobile phones. The visitors find their screens are occupied by a question raised by the artist: “Are we more stupid than before?”.

Are we more stupid than before? A question that is difficult and unnecessary to answer. Various roles and representations,
as well as methods of applications of human “stupidities” are ubiquitous in the exhibition in the disguises of poetic revolt,
unavoidable tragic reality,and so on."stupidity"has noting to do with intelligence- it is generated from opposition. The dilemma of each generation expects the generation to begin a new beginning. People are always new, yet history is always old,
this remains true through the past, present and the future?
