Phillip Hua lyrically link his long-gone rural San Jose to digital life - 48 hills
Briefly

Phillip Hua's exhibition "You Can Never Go Home Again" addresses the irreversible changes in our world due to technology while suggesting a thoughtful balance between digital innovation and humanity.
Hua reflects on his upbringing, noting the silence of crickets in his rural San Jose childhood, emphasizing the contrast between natural beauty and the encroaching tech industry.
The title of his exhibition resonates with the idea that while nostalgia for the past exists, we must acknowledge and adapt to the ever-evolving present.
Echoing Heraclitus, the artwork examines the permanence of change in our lives and the transformation of art, inviting a discourse on past versus future.
