    Roundtable: A Room Rehearses Its Own

    Conversation with Xiangjie Revecca Wu, Xiaojing Zhu, Shihui Zhou and Jenny Wang

    On April 4, 2026, LATITUDE Gallery hosted a roundtable discussion in conjunction with Xiangjie Rebecca Wu’s solo exhibition, A Room Rehearses Its Own. Taking the exhibition as its point of departure, the conversation centered on the “room” as a recurring spatial motif. We were honored to invite artist Xiangjie Rebecca Wu, curator Xiaojing Zhu, LATITUDE Gallery founder Shihui Zhou, and Xuezhu Jenny Wang, Editor-in-Chief of IMPULSE Magazine, to participate.

     

    The discussion unfolded within the specific context of the exhibition space, beginning with the artist’s initial motivations and gradually expanding toward the spatial structures, mechanisms of memory, and modes of perception embedded in the works. Unlike a conventional artist talk centered primarily on the artist’s statement, this roundtable emphasized the generative crossings between multiple perspectives: the curator’s logic of spatial organization, the editor’s experience of looking, and the artist’s creative methodology continuously revised and advanced one another through dialogue. In this process, the exhibition was no longer understood as a fixed result, but rather as an open structure that could be continuously discussed and reinterpreted. At its core was the question of how individual experience, without relying on direct narrative, can be transformed into a form that others may enter and perceive.
