Painting: Self-Identity2023-2024
I am an explorer & living artist, wondering who I am and how the world runs. Looking back, did I live my life to the fullest? Will a future me agree with my idea now? The answer is unsure. Through the windows of my works, I traveled across the world, savoring freedom by the beach & under the sun-kissed lawn, and embracing the healing power of food. These are the keys that connect me to the world. Moreover, I integrated elements of animals. I feel a miracle that animals can communicate with their eyes. Seeing animals, I imagine our world as a gigantic zoo, where I wish eyes and hearts become the bridge.

Life is full of ups and downs. In this series, I see how emotions and food connect. Using blueberries as an expression for negative feelings and hotpot as a state of relaxation, food is a special approach for self-communication. In some works, I utilized the technique of collage. Talking, reading, and writing every day, words become symbols that bridge people with different minds. Wishing to bond with the world, I adopted collage in backgrounds as a means for deeper communication. Overall, these works capture my personal emotions and share my perspective of a wider and more inclusive world.
