This is SU MISU’s Solo photo exhibition after showing in Kaohsiung and Taichung. The event lasts only two days to mirror how fast time passes with different events taking place in a marathon style over a limited time period, including an opening tea party, the artist’s talk, DJ and live performances. In addition to viewing the exhibition, the audience is invited to contribute - there is a temporary photo studio built in the space for the audience to participate in both viewing and producing this limited work in this particular time and place.

░░About Book 《ihategoodbye.》
This is a product of this passing stage. It contains two seperated parts, the visual and the text. To me, taking photographs is no longer as simple as recording what everyone appears to be; but a way of looking at my past/dead images and accepting my alienated/live existence. From a perspective of the main narrator,I looked closely at how I felt that I did not want to be parted with the "that-has-been" moments just before pressing the shutter.

The first "ihategoodbye" says good bye to the past. The aura has gone in a twinkling. The still images stay. Time moves, and the image passes (away).
The second "ihategoodbye" says I do not want to see you. Not wanting to be parted because what was photographed is the "old you", but what I see is the "new you". You are still on-going. The virtual images reflect the reality, nontheless, are added with the unstability of alienation and enstrangement. As per J. Lacan's Theory of Mirror Stage, similar to images in the mirrors, one may falsely recognize the images in the photographes as oneself, but the images are never as real as the ever changing realities.

The text, Diary, is the record of an intimate relationship between 2010 to 2012. BDSM practitioners are almost always particular about privacy, so that the images were transformed into words. The words may then be visualised and evolved into images.

At last, this is a collection of the fragments of the past. This is the ultimate relic that says, "Good bye".

░░About video｜
The image begins with the Bodhisattva in Taoism. In 2006 33% of the population of Taiwan is Taoist; tied with Buddhism, they are the two main religious beliefs.

Bodhisattva is often depicted not only as both male or female, but also genderless. According to , there are thirty three incarnations of Guan yin Bodhisattva, but in Sanskrit there is a distinction between male, female, and neuter. Nowadays the female incarnation is called “Gyoran Kannon (Fish-Basket Guan yin)”. “Women since ancient times always suffered more than men. The character of a woman is merciful and compassionate, and so motherly love is rare in male-oriented society.”《The Universal Door of Guan Shi Yin Bodhisattva》 explained why the incarnations are often depicted in women's image. Therefore the “incarnation/ metamorphosis at will” of Guan yin in the East emphasized the identification of intersectionality. By starting with Taoist deities and Bodhisattva, consumerist misappropriations are rapidly distributed by the pervasive internet and capitalist society. These materialist pursuits inherent in capitalism, because religious fanaticism also derives from the emptiness of the soul, increase religious “Disenchantment” in modern society.
