About That's Because is an exhibition by Donglin Song considering how human emotion and desire are displaced, transferred, and projected beyond the human body. Through soft, touchable materials and restrained forms of interaction, the exhibition explores transgression not as excess or shock, but as a subtle crossing-where feeling slips from one body to another, from the human to the non-human. The works focus on moments in which intimacy emerges toward machines, objects, and material surfaces. These encounters do not aim to explain or categorise desire, but to acknowledge its movement: how affect attaches itself to what is usually considered inert, functional, or neutral. In this sense, transgression operates quietly, through proximity, pressure, and hesitation. Rather than illustrating specific fetishes or identities, the exhibition offers a space for sensing what is difficult to name. Touch becomes a way of thinking, and softness a site where emotion, projection, and restraint coexist. thats because holds these encounters without judgement, allowing desire to appear as a relation-unstable, indirect, and unresolved.
