always a work in progress

As an artist

My work involves converting and formalizing patterns of conflict to incorporate them into a collective archive with an informal playfulness. Sometimes, I choose to leave them in their raw form, as a result of my experimental process.

I am a conceptual artist who often combines various tools and methods to explore ideas. I investigate both physical and immaterial spaces to discover the context of a place, identify any conflicting patterns surrounding everyday life, and create a story behind it.

During my childhood, my dad ran a small plastic fabrication company. I always watched him testing samples in a small machine that blended different color powders and raw materials together for the larger machines. Processes like these have followed me throughout my life and art production, where I enjoy using several different pieces to make one. Sometimes, I leave them in their raw experimental state. I move fluidly between objects and subject matters, from photography, drawing, and text to workshops, conversations, found objects, improvisation, poetry, software, websites, open-ended audience participation and perhaps anything.

I continuously investigate both natural and human-made spaces, both physical and virtual, public and private. I question the relationship between each element within a space, curious about how people adapt to the space and engage with others. My interest lies in what happens between humans and objects, objects and objects, or information and space.

My peripatetic existence, moving from a countryside house to a small room in a crowded street, to a dorm room in Tainan, and then to different types of buildings across countries in New York and London, has influenced my work. Experiencing different types of spaces has helped me learn about displacement. I find more moments when I roam the streets, flow between buildings, or navigate screen spaces, both online and offline, to gather any dissonance, absurdities, and flux materials/information in the contemporary world. My work converts and formalizes those moments to create a collective archive with an informal playfulness.

My practice involves a series of projects related to communications, exploring relationships between human interactions and urban spaces. I seek out certain public and private physical places around the city: an abandoned building, an enclosed area, a private living space, or a public park. These spaces may be actual locations or imagined dream places. I am trying to investigate how space is used and occupied by people. My process includes observing the space, communicating with people across multiple platforms, and then collecting, recording and documenting results.

The medium is a combination of image, graphic work, poetry, photography and installation. My practice is exploratory, with no fixed structure or end result. Therefore, each project may take it’s own finished form as a website, poster, or photographic installation. The final presentation of each project is somewhere between designed and un-designed, fitting into the space available. A space is created to allow viewers to seek their own meaning.
