數學是一個能獨立于物理宇宙的一個純粹的世界，不為任何生物或物理事件所左右，而同時又是萬物規律所依據的根本。當我利用數學知識創立不同的密碼系統進行藝術創作時，也在企圖以一種純粹的形式構造一個全新的世界，一個我們所處的物理世界的一個數學形式的鏡像。在這個世界里，沒有具體生物的痕跡，但卻能感受到感情和理智的抽象式表達以及它們之間的交融和斗爭。而密碼的涉入則象征著我們物理世界的恒定規律和各種具有現實性指向的寓意。
在展覽場地繪制了一個由我密碼構成的巨型互動性迷宮，當觀眾進入觀看展覽時，也隨即進入到這個數學的鏡像中。迷宮的構造，在一定程度上象征著充滿未知的人生。生命的歷程從來不是一條直線，它就像一個錯綜復雜的迷宮般，有時候迂回繞道，有時候碰壁無路。而正是在這種迷途中，我們企圖尋找著生命的意義。
Mathematics is a pure world independent from the physical universe. When I use math to create different code systems for art, I am attempting to construct a completely new world in a pure form, a mirror of the physical world that we live in. In this new world, there is no trace of tangible living things, and existing instead are abstract expressions of feeling and reason, and the blurring or struggles between them. Within these artworks, the use of code symbolizes the constant law of our physical world and the various inherent methods of comprehending our reality.
In the exhibition venue, there is a large-scale interactive maze composed of my code. When the audience enters the exhibition, they also enter the mirror of math. The structure of the maze, to some extent, symbolizes a life of the unknown. The path of life is never a straight line; it is like an intricate maze with detours and, at times, walls with no way forward. It is in this complex journey, that we try to find the meaning of life.

2019年10月5日，藝術家炫名的第八個個展在北京上苑藝術館開幕。作為上苑藝術館2019的駐留藝術家，炫名創作了一批全新的作品并呈現在這次展覽中，而尤為突出的，是他把展館的整個場地都包裹在一個互動型的迷宮中，而這迷宮，正是由他創立的其中一套密碼所構成。
On October 5, 2019, artist Pamviles has his eighth solo exhibition in Shangyuan Art Museum in Beijing. As a resident artist of Shangyuan art Museum in 2019, Pamviles has created a series of new artworks and presented them in this exhibition. What stands out is that he has drawn an interactive maze in the whole venue of the exhibition hall, which is constituted by one of the codes he created.
在這一數學鏡像的迷宮中，除了密碼背后隱藏的信息外，更多——如同他的藝術作品一樣——在于它的象征意義。從迷宮入口進來，沿著迷宮一直走下去會碰到一些鏡子，在鏡子上面有著不一樣的問題，這些問題隨著迷宮的深入也隨之漸進變化，“現實是什么？”、“為何而活？”、“何為終結？”等。它們似乎代表了人生不同階段——從出生到死亡——所提出的疑問。而鏡子的擺放位置也非常有意思，似乎只有當你在迷宮中繞道或者走到角落的時候才能碰到它們，這似乎象征著在人生的道路中，只有當你不再往一個方向一直前進時，當你遇到挫折或者空閑下來時，才開始反思或者質疑自己的人生。
In this maze, besides there’s some hidden message behind the code, there is, as in his art, a symbolic significance. As you go along the maze, you will encounter mirrors on which you will see various questions that change gradually as you go through the maze. "what is reality?" ", " what to live for? ", " what is the end?” ,etc. They seem to represent questions raised by different stages of life, from birth to death. The position of the mirror is also very interesting, it seems that only when you take a detour or walk to the corner can be able to reach them, it seems to be a symbol of the journey of life, only when you are no longer running toward one direction all the time, when you encounter frustration or idle down will you beging to reflect on or questioned your life.
在迷宮中除了鏡子外，還有一些空白的方格紙，它們的大小和有字的鏡子完全一樣，本來滿心期待能看到如同鏡子那樣的字樣卻什么都沒有，讓人難免有點失望。這似乎象征著，有時候你也許努力了，結果卻一無所得。
In addition to the mirror, there are some blank white papers; all the same size as the mirror which has words on, when you expect to see the similar written words again but only find out there’s nothing on it, it gets a little disappointing. It seems to symbolize that sometimes you might try and get nothing.
在迷宮中走到一定程度，會碰到一個方形站臺，只見上面貼著“被遺棄的問題”的標簽，站臺上的盒子里面裝滿了各種各樣的問題，它們都曾經被提問過，但很快就被忙碌的生活所占據并拋于腦后。它們包括：“生命的意義？”、“我該何去何從？”、“這就是我的目標？”等。
At some point in the maze, you come across a square platform labeled "The forsaken questions," and boxes on the platform are filled with questions that have been asked but are quickly taken up and forgotten by your busy life. They include: "the meaning of life? ", " where should I go? ", " this is my goal?”, etc.
在我們生命中，會遇到很多選擇，會提出很多問題，也會經常繞道甚至碰壁，會迷茫和懷疑，也會反省和審視，也許我們窮盡一生也找不到我們滿意的答案，徒勞半世卻回到了原點，但正是在這種追尋中，我們才有可能體會到生命的意義。展覽中的這個迷宮不僅僅是數學鏡像的迷宮，也象征著一個人生的縮影。
In our life, we will encounter a lot of choices, ask many questions, we would get confused and have doubts, we would also reflect our life and look back, maybe we try our whole life but never find the satisfied answer to our questions, and we work so hard but back to where we started, but it is in the pursuit, we may experience the meaning of life. The maze in this exhibition is not only a mirror of math, but also a symbol of life.

藝術家炫名，在精神失常時找到了藝術，在愛的追求中創立了Apm數學定理， 曾身無分文地流浪過，也曾為心中的繆斯而去到成都并在那里生活了四年。在2016年，他的書《漂·繹：一個藝術家的瘋狂、性、藝術與哲學》出版，講述其故事、油畫、詩作和哲學。至今他已在北京、成都、廣州、東莞、深圳、歐洲等地舉辦過各種個人展覽及藝術活動。
炫名的作品涉及人生、哲學、性、宗教等元素，而最為突出的是其對數學的涉及。在他的畫中總能發現與數學、密碼相關的特性，在這部分畫中，他把自己創立的Apm定理融入其中，每一個符號、幾何圖形的構成、甚至物象和線條的位置或顏色的選擇都是一套經過數學處理的密碼，而里面則隱含著一些被遺忘的信息。如同一張尋寶地圖般訴說著一個隱蔽的故事。他創立的這些秘密系統都具有明顯的象征意義，為此他以大量的文字闡述了自己的藝術理論。他的畫所涉及的主題：數學、哲學、物理、宗教和性，都在以各自的方式——邏輯、思辨、探索、信仰與感受——企圖闡述人生與宇宙的奧秘以求找到可能的真理，而這也是炫名的藝術之路，在未知的深究中不斷前行。

Artist Pamviles found art when he suffered from a mental breakdown at the age of eighteen, ever since then art has become part of his life. At this moment he has had eight solo exhibitions and several group exhibitions and art activities in Guangzhou, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Beijing, Serbia and other various places, in addition to publishing a book of his stories, paintings, poetry and philosophy.
Pamviles’ artworks are related to life, mathematics, philosophy, society and many other subjects. When he was twenty, he created a mathematical theorem, Apm Theorem, of which he uses in his art practice. With his educational background of mathematics, his current artworks incorporate the form of codes as a major element of his art style. The codes he creates hide information within the paintings, like a map that leads to a hidden story.
