Wu Yuezhi: Blackout
Wu Yuezhi's obsession with the paradoxical relationship between "the past" and "the future" renders "the present" in his perspective akin to the fragmented sensation experienced after alcohol-induced blackouts, infinitely shrunk and verging on nonexistence. The compression and collapse of space-time fuels Wu Yue's science-fiction-like imaginings of a "sense of futurity" within socialist history. When this ideologically superimposed mode of thinking intersects with hormonal impulses, it gives rise to moments that are thrillingly exhilarating.
