G1-F3

Can we see life as a chess game? Can every move be a decision, a choice, a result? What about the pieces? The knight is courage and adventure, the bishop is wisdom and power, the king is authority, the queen is super ego...

G1F3 is an opening... The knight's first and free step.

In the exhibition G1F3, the artist transforms the motto "every move is a decision, every decision is a result" into forms and aims to make the viewer think about the steps he takes, the decisions he makes and his progress in life move by move.

The exhibition portrays a story that resists the difficulties of life, seeks solutions, evaluates possibilities, shares its beauties and embraces victory. At the same time, it also explores the idea that the plans made for the future in the face of the unexpected returns and randomness of life are actually the results of chance. It shows that not everything in life is under our control and that sometimes coincidences lead us down different paths.
