Ziu Suh is a relentless observer. That is why he picks things up. Just as "farming" in online games refers to the repetitive act of collecting resources or items, the artist constantly "farms" his surroundings, searching for traces of what is left behind. He captures images of 90s-era apartments, evoking a deep sense of nostalgia, or pulls out crumpled old newspapers wedged between stone walls and tucks them into his coat pocket. What he focuses on is not just the visual elements, but the history embedded in these places and the traces left by those who lived there. Like an archaeologist unearthing fragments from the earth, Ziu Suh collects the trivial elements of everyday life and reconstructs them in his own way. Thus, the precious materials he picks up from the scene are mixed with cement, and the time is momentarily frozen. (Excerpt from the Preface)
