Artist Statement
“ Art is a tool to gather and present multiple narratives of the human experience, and thus aid the continuous reconfiguration of our existing beliefs.”
As a young adult, I feel like there isn't much room to question the cultural rules and beliefs that regulate my day-to-day behaviours. Departing from the lack of such spaces, my works facilitate people to reflect and exchange their perspectives with others.
I use a participatory and interactive approach during the processes and presentations of my artworks to make them approachable for people from different backgrounds. I start my projects by gathering various subjective viewpoints in my community to become more aware of my perspective. These findings guide me to devise an artwork that fosters the further gathering and sharing of people's personal perspectives of the human experience.
I believe that the awareness of diverse narratives empowers people to reconfigure their existing ideologies with compassion. I'm currently focusing on building Comfort Object Project and managing programs in my collective, Our Virtual Studio.
