In today’s China, cities seem to have been “borrowed” from the future. In almost every city one goes to in China, the urban mapping for the future makes you want to offer your own ideas. The planning of many not yet built cities or representative landmarks are transformed into dreams that are more realistic than the actual urban space. Even though it is fictional, it is also real, reflecting China’s rapid speed of development. The views of these cities are more city-like than the ones we are actually living in. They reveal a kind of strange “futurism”, without the chaos of a real city – a vivid reality, but the fictional city exists only in the mind. Yet, we need this simulated world to help us transcend immediacy. The reality Yuan Shun’s work targets could be precisely that which allows us to transcend reality. Because current Chinese cities thinks their pasts are not sufficient to symbolize their reality, but instead borrow from the future to represent the present. The future has now became the symbol of every city in China. - Feng Boyi
