In the modern consumer society, the ‘system of objects’ has long transcended its basic functional attributes, turning towards the symbolic production and the simulated ‘consumer system’. Tracing back to the origin of ‘objects’, factories have gradually become a production field filled with symbolism, metaphor, and cultural significance in the process of shaping the ‘simulated world’ in consumer society. These symbols are eventually internalized by consumers in the consumer market, and the reproduction of the production field’s social structure is completed, maintaining and reinforcing existing social hierarchies, collective memories, identity recognition, and consumer habits. The ‘simulation’ phenomenon has complicated social reality, during which individual freedom and creativity are compressed, and people’s living spaces have become mirrors of the capitalist system. Open from December 22nd to March 22nd, Tuesday to Sunday, with specific business status subject to daily opening conditions.
