The city, a living space, is kind of assembled memory commonly held by people. The blueprints of each city and the infrastructure are quite different from one another, so that there are varieties of developing civic landscape. In my artworks, portraying civic landscape can be a way to respond to present times and record current events. I was growing up in the city, so I put my own living experience into my artworks. The thesis is to talk about the connection between personal living experience and artworks, which is also the axis of the artwork creation, including description of the border of a city and the skyline, like any object standing in a surrounding such as stairs, water tanks, and ventilators. These borderline signs compose the whole style of a city. The skyline is developing for a long time, accumulating and overlapping, and eventually turns into the outlook of a city. It is progressive, no starting and no ending. There are three series of the artworks: City Dying, the Border of the City and the Skyline, and each has been elaborated on in the thesis.
