In my mixed media practice, I create interactive installations and ephemeral activities that invite introspective engagement and imaginative reflection. Incorporating conceptual sculptures, moving images, tracing paper prints, water, and my own bodily presence, my works can be experienced either through active participation or interactive observation.
Drawn from poetic and allegorical qualities of the sky and clouds; flowing continuity and non-locality, my practice is a digestive process of understanding and imagining the sense of being.
Slowly breathing in and out of water particles, immersing into the circulating flow; intangible resonance of warm connections within myself and between people are the core concepts I am exploring.
In Graduate Show, I collaborated with a sculptor, Lucie Benninghaus (MAFA), to co-curate the exhibition space, surrounded by many windows and rectangular frames with a divided sink area. We chose the space together, aiming to make a playful, malleable, and welcoming space where interactions with the works and between visitors are encouraged. The atmosphere and form of the space were made to keep changing throughout the exhibition period, responding to the sunlight's movement, weather, my everyday action-based works and participatory work, visitors' movements, their engagement with Lucie's sculptures and my installations, and the cubic stalls that can be sat and moved around freely by anyone.
The collaborative title, 'Sometimes Sunny, Sometimes Cloudy', not only reflects such evolving state of the space but also connotates a state of mind and inner feelings, resonating to both mine and Lucie's practices.
