"Cross-culturally, fatmi questions the boundaries of memory, communication and language. The deconstruction of language and machine as communication tools is another focus. In his artistic practice, he often uses discarded apparatuses and objects of analog communication technology and sends their codes and rules through a prism of architecture, language, and machine. This is also the case for "Inside the Fire Circle" in our exhibition. The artwork consists of a network of seventeen old typewriters interconnected by a large number of red and black jump-start cables. In mounir fatmi's multifaceted artworks in this exhibition, the main focus is the relationship between language and thought, language and perception, language and understanding. "
