Interference

The shape of trees symbolizes nature, and the cloth symbolizes human intervention in nature. The work collides the primitive nature of nature with the possibility of human interference, creates a scene space with the theme of ecology, and applies the tree modeling elements in the literati paintings of the Song Dynasty to sculpture. When people stare at these works, they will think about where human beings have gone and the relationship between nature and human beings.

Moment Series

Moment is a sculpture series that combines heirloom porcelain with blown borosilicate glass. The antique porcelain cups carry traces of history into the present, while the shaped glass represents a frozen moment. The glass is formed as if a liquid were splashing, so a brief instant is held still. Transparent and opaque colored glass was selected to suit the structure and concept of each cup. Every glass form is blown first and then joined to the porcelain piece. The intent is to preserve special moments within rapidly passing time.

Open Work

Open Work is a performative spatial space. It is shaped around the metaphors of consciousness and thresholds. Abstract gates and the plan created by surfaces that function like instruments turn into an experience of exchange with the visitor's touch. It intentionally emphasizes monumentality but as visitors interact with the space, this untouchability gives way to an auditory quality and flexibility. This theatrical space is not grounded anywhere and carries its roots along with it, the system is mobile. This structure is also a gentle question mark to the emerging new world right before humans.

Colorise

Colorise is an art installation created for the fountain of a shopping centre. Twelve transparent plexiglass posts of varied heights and colours form a unified sculptural rhythm. The posts were made by bonding pre-cut plexiglass panels with acrylic cement to achieve clean edges without visible glue marks. Each post rests on a concrete base placed within the shallow water. Daylight and moving water pass through the coloured surfaces and create changing reflections. Visitors experience the shifting colours simply by walking around the fountain.
