The line, as a one-dimensional figure, possesses the unique ability to encircle a two-dimensional surface and reflect events within a three-dimensional space. On the map, a virtual line wraps around the geographical space, creating a boundary not naturally formed but dictated by policy. This boundary restricted people's movements and led to uniform behaviors during the pandemic of 2022.

During the pandemic in 2022, residents of Shenzhen had to scan a QR code and undergo nucleic acid testing to enter public places. This repetitive daily behavior, under the circumstances, became a shared experience. Through this publication, I aim to document the similar behaviors of different individuals during this special period, guiding viewers to repeat the same actions, thereby awakening our collective memory.


直线,作为一种一维的图形,拥有环绕二维表面、映射三维空间事件的独特能力。在地图上,一条虚拟的线环绕地理空间,形成的边界非自然而由政策决定,这限制了人们的行动,并在2022年的疫情期间导致了人们行为的高度一致性。
在2022年的疫情中,深圳的居民为了进入公共场所,必须扫描二维码并进行核酸检测,这种反复的日常行为在特殊背景下成为了一种共同的经历。通过这本刊物,我旨在记录这个特殊时期人们相似的行为,引导观众通过重复同样的动作,唤起我们的集体记忆。
