Inevitable Closure transmutes the chronicles of a physically existing project into an interactive web-based experience, with an intent to discuss the elapse of time and the slippery slope fallacy. Drawing inspiration from the narrative backstory of ‘Arrow Factory’, an independently run art space in Beijing that only endured from 2008 to 2019, it probes into the inherent nature within its development constrained by external forces and regulations. Charting the three critical stages that ultimately led to its cessation after eleven years, Inevitable Closure abstracts this process into a portrayal of predetermined destiny shared by all entities, whether organic or inorganic.
