"Order" (企理) is a term coined by Zou Yanxi, embodying her notion of cleanliness, tidiness, and order. Meanwhile, "Heterogeneity (stand for heterogeneous Sequential Pattern)" (差序格局) was proposed by myself, borrowing from sociologist Fei Xiaotong's description to illustrate how Zou Yanxi's work exhibits concentric layers radiating outward from a central self, along with dimensional variations around the center, forming a system of differentiated orders. Contrasted with traditional artistic methods, Zou Yanxi posits that contemporary art through performance and installation can connect more directly to the essence of "experience," offering a closer sensory translation. She seems intent on grounding the specificity of "existence" and its meaning amidst the mundane aspects of daily life, hence her creations are predominantly linked to direction, territory, and corporeality.
