My art making predominantly is experiencing perceptions on the sense of seeing and listening, with paintings, mixed media installations and sound compositions. The practice is a process of approaching materiality and spirituality through considering the subject of identity, nature, emotion, and material. I mostly use painting, text, sound, and found-object into my work, by expressing specific contents and perspectives to reflect on personal experience.

Brass on panel
On Longing (Notation on Brass #11) is a piece responding to the art period of minimalism. The color made from the material of brass, as pigment applied on the panel. The stillness of the work, and with a rectangular form to produce a specific area, leads people reaching to their imagination and create their own notation by staring at the golden surface.
