Universe Memoir
The Boundary · Digital Art Exhibition
Introduction
The boundary: an intangible void, yet vivid and ever-present, residing between countless societies, cultures, and individuals.
The boundary between morality and malevolence, life and death, the upper and lower tiers, adventure and stability, overwork and relaxation, madness and numbness, Earth and black holes, society and self, science and the humanities...
This transparent barrier we feel when we raise our hand prevents things in the same world from intermingling or influencing each other. Various emotions, thoughts, and attitudes can create their own boundaries.
In this innovative humanities digital art exhibition, visitors will enter the digital exhibition as virtual avatars, allowing them to walk around, explore, and immerse themselves in the atmosphere of art and technology, featuring artworks, photos, videos, and performance art related to the theme. As you explore, you can also interact with creators and other visitors, creating a vibrant digital space. The act of displaying, communicating, and reflecting is itself a journey into the theme of "The Boundary."
Art is all around us, and thinking about "The Boundary" reveals our reflections on life, existence, growth, and living. It deepens our understanding and opens up new possibilities for humanity.

Digital Art Mueseum
Upon entering the main page, visitors can choose their favorite virtual avatar to explore the exhibition hall. These avatars are a blend of 3D modeling and real-world artworks, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in a diverse environment where technology and art intersect.
The main exhibition hall features a rose and a spaceship, symbolizing our stories in the grand universe. This design combines technology and art in a fresh way, breaking the usual boundaries and creating something truly unique.
The Exhibition Sub-areas
The sub-areas will be designed similarly to the main exhibition hall, using roses as the central theme. They will feature a combination of minimalist hand-drawing and spray painting methods. Additionally, small modeling accessories such as bars and swimming pools will be included to enrich the overall layers, providing visitors with a more engaging and immersive exhibition experience.
