Transeo“突变：关于数字化未来的幻想”是北欧瑞典当代艺术家克里斯库伦格林首个面向全球观众的线上虚拟个展。此次展览在主题上，深刻反思了当下科技发展对人们生活与未来的影响，并通过69幅作品阐释了如何在充满不确定与混乱的时刻，找到生活的引力点，守住内心的平静与秩序，构建新的秩序与美好。 

Transeo: Dreaming of a digital delusion is the first virtual solo art exhibition of the Swedish artist Kristoffer Kullengren to connect his global audience. The exhibition reflects on technology’s double-edged effect on human life and future through 69 artworks that narrate ways to navigate through uncertain and chaotic times with a gravitational focus on the unchanged principles that create inner peace and order for happiness and joy.  

“突变”展览也将首次线上展出，Kristoffer Kullengren与创建于1853年的全球顶级钢琴品牌德国贝希斯坦，联手打造的首个面向中国市场观众的艺术NFT作品。 

Transeo will also exhibit the first collaborative NFT artwork between Kristoffer Kullengren and Bechstein, a world-class piano brand since 1853, a first of its kind in China market.  

展览以一幅“你看到的不是苹果”的艺术作品展开整个展览的叙事。“苹果”象征着科技给人类发展带来的辩证影响。该作品致敬了20世纪超现实主义法国艺术家勒内·马格里特（René François Ghislain Magritte）的作品“你看到的不是烟斗”，突出表现了艺术家Kristoffer Kullengren的简约主义与理想主义。 

The exhibition is unveiled with the piece, These Are Not Apples, to implicate the double-edged effect of technology on human life. The piece combines a tribute to Magritte’s ‘Ceci n’est pas une pipe’ with a unique philosophical manifestation of Kristoffer Kullengren’s minimalism and idealism.  

科技是人类吃下的“智慧”之果。在虚拟展馆的两边，向左是由科技建造的未来世界，向右则是因颠覆性变化带来的混乱与秩序重建。 

Technology is the apple of wisdom in which humans have partaken. The virtual entrance diverges into two opposite exhibition spaces. The art displayed in the left space tells of a world of futuristic fantasies built by technology, whereas the art in the right space expresses a world of emotional chaos that results from these same disruptive changes.  

向左的这个虚拟展厅收录了Kristoffer Kullengren的7幅关于科技与人类的共生进化关系的思考，以及对科幻化未来的畅想：通过读取空气中数字化信息实现城市修建的智能蚂蚁，在宇宙中可以实现超光速穿梭的时空门，以及如同《玩家一号》电影中人人都穿戴VR头盔，仅靠数字化信号实现人与人之间交流的未来生活方式。艺术家也通过《智子》作品致敬了雨果奖获得作者刘慈欣的《三体》作品。通过这个作品，他更是隐喻科技虽然为人类社会创造了生产力与财富，但也可能具有其颠覆性的力量。 

The exhibition space on the left displays 7 of Kristoffer Kullengren’s artworks that provoke thoughts on the evolving symbiosis between technology and humanity in a fantastical future: an artificial ant that reads signals in air to automate city building; a time/space portal in the universe that allows travel beyond light speed; a world with the dominant virtual lifestyle under VR helmets like in Spielberg’s‘Ready Player One’; and Sophon, a character in Three-Body Problem by the Hugo award winner Liu Cixin’s. 

虚拟展馆入口的右侧展馆则收录了艺术家关于不确定，多变与复杂创作：“混乱研究”系列。在2020年，当疫情这样的黑天鹅类事件发生的那一刻，我们的生活则处在了众多不确定之中。塔勒布在《黑天鹅》中所说，在这种不确定性中，如何能在黑天鹅事件里的正面影响中勇于尝试，在负面影响中稳中求进是寻找到在不确定中持续发展的方式，也是而后他的《反脆弱》中的能在逆境中更能适应的方式。 

The space on the right displays artworks created on an uncertain, volatile and complex time: Chaos Study Series. In 2020, the black swan event, the pandemic, threw all our lives into a myriad levels of uncertainty. An insight from Taleb’s The Black Swan is how to stay conservative in negative black swan effects and aggressive in positive black swan effects could be a way to navigate through uncertainties, which is also mentioned in his later ‘Anti-Fragile’ to be adaptable in adversities.  

而Kristoffer Kullengren将混乱与秩序的相互衍生的过程中以《混乱》、《对抗》与《秩序》三幅作品的形式表达。根据约翰 格里宾的《深奥的简洁》一书对混乱本质的剖析，随着时间的方向，秩序在熵增的过程中演变成混乱，达到最终的“死亡”平衡；然而，从混乱之中，也能演变出如同生命体这样具有高度秩序的存在，而这正是为何混乱与秩序相互之间存在着对立中的相互衍生。 

A process of mutual derivation between chaos and order is seen from Kristoffer Kullengren’s three works ‘Chaos’, ‘Confront’ and ‘Construct’. As explained by John Gribbin in his ‘Deep Simplicity’, order reduces into chaos when entropy increases, reaching the final balance of ‘death’. Yet, it is also from chaos that a high degree of order can derive such as life forms, which is why chaos and order evolve from each other in the balance. 

在我们身处多变而复杂的环境时，是怎样的原则，让我们在生活中找到锚点并在混乱中进化？亲密关系专家Esther Perel常说，人一生的品质取决于人际关系的品质。通过几组系列作品，艺术家传递了自己在混乱与不确定中所保留的确定性：价值观，重要的人际关系与对生活美好的感知力，成为了整个展览后半部分的主题。 

When we are in a volatile and complex environment, what are the principles that allow us to find an emotional and spiritual anchor to navigate and evolve in uncertain times? Intimacy expert Esther Perel often says that the quality of life depends on the quality of relationships. Through several series of art works, the artist reveals the pillars that stabilize uncertainties: values and principles, quality relationships and a grateful perception to notice the joy in life, which are the themes of the latter half of the exhibition.  

其中，“赠人玫瑰”的价值观以两幅相互镜像对应的作品呈现，在形式上，将赠人玫瑰这个行为背后的哲学观抽象为：给与能衍生给与。 

For values, two mirrored artworks, whose central images are a hand holding a rose to give, express a philosophical insight: the kindness of giving generates more of the kind.  

此次展览有众多作品为首次展出，其中最具代表性的有艺术家就女性主义的平权思考。Kristoffer的作品以抽象的符号来表达他的观点。口红与令人愉悦的微笑，以及一枚红色的高跟鞋象征着社会对女性的角色固化，而这种固化的思考则如同锁链一样，固化了女性的潜能。在“女性系列”第三幅作品中，一个象征力量与工作的铁锤戴着一枚闪亮的钻戒，鲜红紧闭微笑的嘴唇如同拉链，从一端被慢慢拉开。艺术家通过新奇的想象，以并非直接的方式，表达了自己对女性在社会演化过程中的角色转变。 

There are several new artworks that are exhibited for the first time at Transeo. The most representative ones are the artist's perspectives on feminism. The artist uses metaphorical symbols such as lipsticks, pleasant smiles and high heels to express his views: how limiting the society has pigeonholed women into an assumed place to please, which chains their potentials. In the third piece of the Feminism series, a hammer that symbolizes strength and work wears a shiny diamond ring, and the bright lips in red are pulled ‘unzipped’ from one end. Provoking, the art expresses a wanting transformation in females’ role of a social evolution.  

同样为首次展出的作品还有《同一种族：全人类》，这幅作品曾启发于东京音乐制作人Victor Newman在疫情期间发布的专辑“Quarantine”(隔离）的作品。在这幅作品中，艺术家巧妙地通过对颜色变化的描绘，来表达自己的观点：人类只有一个种族，那就是全人类。面对严峻的疫情，全人类是命运共同体，没有人能独自走出这个挑战，只有相互帮助，才能共度难关，共同治愈整个世界。 

The other work that is exhibited for the first time is ‘One Human Race’, which was inspired by Tokyo music production team Funtime Production’s album ‘Quarantine’ released during the pandemic. In this work, Kristoffer Kullengren expresses the concept of one human race through one color in gradual change. With common goals, humankind shares same challenges: in the face of a severe epidemic, all mankind is not divided but one community with one shared future. No one can overcome this challenge alone. Only by helping each other can we overcome this adversity and heal the world together. 

此次展览也是首次期望通过线上的形式，将来自全球的观众聚在一起，以一种新的展陈形式，与观众进行艺术作品的对话与互动。 

This exhibition is also the first time that connects Kristoffer Kullengren’s global audience to come together virtually, and engages in dialogues with interactive experience in an original form.
