Secret Rendezvous
2021 · Website-based project / digital archive
Secret Rendezvous is a web-based project developed during the
COVID-19 pandemic, when physical confinement and political uncertainty
intensified questions of intimacy, self-boundaries, and digital visibility.
The project centers on "Jonathan," a fictional artist constructed as an unstable online proxy. Through correspondence, images, fictional documents, and contributions from lovers, anonymous users, activists, and silent visitors, the website gradually became a shifting archive in which authorship and identity continually changed hands.
Jonathan never settles into a coherent person. He remains a broken relay: part fiction, part projection, part collective body.
The project treats art-making not as a resolution of fear, but as a way of remaining with it.
The original website is no longer online.

《密会》是一个在新冠疫情期间发起的网络项目。彼时,物理空间的封锁与政治局势的不确定性,
使得关于亲密关系、自我边界与数字可见性的追问愈发紧迫。
项目的核心是"乔纳森"——一个被虚构出来的艺术家身份,被设定为一个不稳定的在线代理。 通过书信往来、图像、虚构文档,以及来自恋人、匿名用户、行动者和静默访客的参与贡献, 这个网站逐渐演变为一个不断变动的档案库,其中作者身份与主体性始终在流转易手。
乔纳森从未凝结为一个完整的人格。他始终是一截破损的中继:一半是虚构,一半是投射, 一半是集体的身体。
这个项目将艺术创作视为一种与恐惧共处的方式,而非对其的克服或消解。
