The heads of states met at the end of World War I to sign the Versailles treaty in 1919 in the Palace's hall of mirrors. This was at the time when Europe was infected with the Spanish flu pandemic that lasted until 1922. The project is a visual narration of the conjunction of these two historical events that have uncanny reverberations in the present: the Versailles treaty has charted the path towards present-day geopolitical crises, and the Spanish flu can be seen as a prelude to the COVID pandemic and its response.

镜厅往事的鬼魂

1919 年，各国元首在第一次世界大战结束时在宫殿的镜厅会面签署了凡尔赛条约。那是在欧洲感染持续到 1922 年的西班牙流感大流行的时候。该项目是对这两个历史事件的结合的视觉叙述，这两个历史事件在当前产生了不可思议的反响：凡尔赛条约为现在指明了道路地缘政治危机和西班牙流感可以被视为 COVID 大流行及其应对措施的前奏。
