Like a Urinal in a Nightclub: Luo Jr-shin

Like a Urinal in a Nightclub is an exhibition comprised of installations, sculptures, objects, sound pieces, and site-specific work by Luo Jr-shin. The nightclub scene is adopted intentionally as a metaphor. As Note on the wall in a restroom of a Taipei nightclub so aptly put, a nightclub is where people and matter meet and interconnect, where “some golden liquid turn[s] into another.” This vibrant and extraordinary space provides a backdrop from which Luo extracts, edits, configures, and erases elements of idiosyncrasy. As if entering a live organism, the spatial experience introduced by the artist is temporal, visceral, and personalized (perhaps pharmacokinetics is an adequate analogy, visualizing physical spaces as organs, and movements of visitors as substances taking effect in the body). It foregrounds Luo’s ongoing focus on the affair between human and matter – essentially, how meaning and perception confer and morph between people and matter that have come into contact with each other.
