Project Rrose was Jun-Jieh Wang's following art work after the 2009 Taishin Arts Awards Project David III: David's Paradise, the start of the latest series of creation. It covers the HD video, photography and mixed-media devices, such as multiple manifestations. Love & Death, appropriates obscure visual elements from Marcel Duchamp work "Given". In addition to extension of its dynamic image of the imagination, but also to explore the issues of narrative and point of view. The desire to sneak inside and outside of the peephole, owes much to eros and civilization. Where the role of Art is located within an increasingly heterogeneous society becomes ambiguous, as it is ambiguous in the repression of Eros. Through the re-interpretation of Duchamp, Project Rrose is a series of work that pays homage to indifference, which essences of the art thinking, on the other hand, have tried to be on behalf of the people living under complex society illusion of the environment.
"Men can die without anxiety if they know that what they love is protected from misery and oblivion." -Herbert Marcuse,Eros and Civilization
