Statement

A dialogue; Between hand and mind; Connecting thought through touch; Diving from reflection into reaction; Emotion begins to emerge; Form slowly grows; Gesture leaves its trace; Hands express what words cannot say…Zì (Self in Chinese) reveals.

My practice is driven by a continuous curiosity for the complex layer of identity and the sense of self-belonging. Material and techniques become tools for reflection, transformation and narrative communication. I believe all material is human-like, and our hands express purely emotions that words cannot say.
