Lost Contact - the Belonging and Affinity through Collective Amnesia's Cover

Temporarily unlisted

What have interested me, and what I explore in my works, is the loss of identity and our conflicting reactions to the loss. In a world which knows no beginning nor ending, we grasp the present being by reaching ‘in’ and ‘out’: reflecting on ourselves while interacting with the outside world. Life is a series of negotiations between inner self and corporal body, between us and the surroundings. The anxiety to build up a sense of belonging, coupled with the fear of losing oneself, creates our ever-repeating extension and contraction, which, in turn, become the momentum to keep us to soldier on.

My works employs various techniques to address the blend-in, the alienation, the invasion, the implosion, the hybridity, and related issues born out of the negotiations, and a comprehensive survey of the works is presented here.
