In 1956, the artist Chard Hamilton, showed the collage Just what is it that makes today’s homes so different, so appealing? The collage contained many of the objects of that era and showed the influence of industrial development on family culture. Now, in 2020, almost 70 years later, objects as well as lives have changed; however today when the social environment consists of artificial items, the question is what makes our daily lives so different and so attractive? I'm trying to add abstract elements in the relationship between those representative objects to explore the relationship between space and objects, and change people’s perception of space.

In space, objects have a series of dynamic relationships, and people examine their relationships and find out what they are. I use everyday life as the scope of my observation of how these objects change corresponding to space in their usual relationships through adding or replacing objects. I look for items with linear shapes in space, and see those items as one-dimensional lines, projecting shadows in space through light, and placing them in three-dimensional space while changing the geometric relationships of existing spaces. I put abstract lines and objects in space, re-identify their relationships, and change the state of the perception of space.
