 Infinity Corporation addresses the meaning of various socio-culture spaces created by human kind. The spaces range from living area to include the interior design, architecture, department store, discount store, supermarket, church, cathedral, temple, art center, gallery, museum, and other complex cultural spaces. I would like to name the spatial rules applied to the aforementioned places the gallery system.
 The gallery system refers to a unified institution applied to the process of valuable creation whether it be abstract or specific. The way we secure a space, organize, and display different good of varying monetary value coincides with the ways we install paintings in an art center, decorate one’s room, store jewelries and securities inside a safe, and worship and glorify the higher power inside a religious space.
        One important spatial feature paired with the gallery system is the symmetric structure. Perfect symmetry has been repeated used in the architecture of ancient temples, palaces, cathedral, and commercial buildings in modern society. What is the source of solemnity from these places? Do they house the much desired value? Does the value exist in them? If that the specifically designed and created space houses value as it is, then we would not have to worry about the being and property of value, because they would already be beaming right there and then.
        I create a shop of perfect symmetry structure for this exhibition. The shop does not have any goods. We do not come across a completely empty space very often making the emptiness hard to bear. The space from which all value is eliminated will put us through a test as difficult as a void question about value and being. I just hope that such uneasiness will be a wind through your hair and scenery outside your window without imposing you with heavy weight. Even though spaces we create everyday take various forms, they ironically boil down to simplicity at the plane view of society is continuously poking my consciousness. end; this overbearingly.
