"Miniature" is a cognitive approach that structurally and rationally condenses macro-level objects, simplifying complex entities and presenting them within a controllable visual space. "Gigantic" refers to objects that transcend the direct perceptual range of an individual’s physical body, encompassing the grand systems of nature, the evolutionary processes ofhistory, and the coercive flows of social information. "Collection" represent a process of de-situationalization, where individuals extract and solidify experiences, emotions, and memories from specific times and spaces, transforming them into material evidence independent of daily fluctuations. These three dimensions constitute the fundamental framework through which individuals manage their relationship with external reality.

"Miniature," "Gigantic," and "Collection" do not appear as rhetorical concepts but represent three different cognitive scales and practical strategies. The exhibition is based on the investigation of individual existential experiences and the material forms of contemporary society. Susan Stewart's "On Longing" serves as a theoretical reference; the complex production mechanisms and fragmented information order of modern society create an invisible encasement for individuals. Against this backdrop, artistic creation plays an observational role in reevaluating the relationship between oneself and the external world.
