The Temple Of Hidden Coitus 2

The Temple Of Hidden Coitus 幽媾寺

Imagined as a shrine to eroticism, The Temple Of Hidden Coitus contains several sculptures in the form of witchcraft that explore the relationship between eroticism, the body, and violence.

For a long time, witchcraft was an additional language outside of modern science. As a way of dealing with contradictions in the folkloric world, witchcraft provides a place for imagination in the face of humanity's unreachable desires, a triumph of psychological fact. Witchcraft is also the power compensation of the dispossessed, and people of any status can try to escape their dilemmas through the power of witchcraft.

Eroticism is different from love and sexual desire, it is a kind of both spiritual and physical desire, an impulse to eliminate individuality. Often, excess eroticism leads to a kind of violence that, at the individual level, leads to self-destruction or infatuation with the other; At the social level, such violence undermines the rational order of labor.

Daoguang Wen combines wood with a composite material in physical form to discuss the complex psychological effects of his exuberant sexual desires. The excess eroticism leads him to bear the hidden violence for a long time, while the desire will not disappear, resulting in an eternal struggle between the desire and violence. Multiple psychological states and reflections on violence are visualized in the sculpture.
The labor offered in the process of handling the wood also became part of the witchcraft prayer.

幽媾寺被想象为一间关于爱欲的淫祠，其中包含多件巫术形式的雕塑，它们探索爱欲、身体与暴力的关系。
长久以来，在现代科学之外，巫术是额外的语言。作为民俗世界处理矛盾的一种方式，在人类无可抵达的渴望面前，巫术提供了想象的场所，这是一种心理事实的获胜。巫术亦是失权者的权力补偿，任何身份的人可以借由巫术中的权力尝试脱离困境。
爱欲区别于爱与性欲，它是一种精神性的身体欲望，一种消除个体性的冲动。常常，过剩的爱欲导向一种暴力，在个体层面，这种暴力引发自毁或对他者的迷恋；在社会层面，这种暴力破坏理性的劳动秩序。
文道广将木头与身体形式的综合材料结合，讨论旺盛的爱欲对他所产生的复杂心理影响。无法满足的爱欲导致他内心承受着长期隐匿的暴力，而渴望并不会消失，二者形成永恒的角力。多元的心理状态和对暴力的思考在雕塑中被视觉化。在处理木头的过程中所献祭的劳动也成为巫术祈祷的一部分。
