The Girl Who Devour the Sun
Ceramic, 30 cm x 16 cm x 70 cm The sculpture takes the shape of a twisted body figure and female face, forming a fantastical landscape. Its myriad openings and cavities invite exploration, hinting at the inner world, and suggesting themes of introspection, emotion, and the human condition. The drawings on these ceramics derive primarily from my print works, especially etchings that capture fine details. Showcasing these intricate touches on ceramics is fascinating to me. The drawings depict women's bodies and their inner conflicts, with many faces representing different aspects of myself—fear, confusion, curiosity. These expressions and emotions combine to form a complete person. The central face is depicted swallowing the sun, which serves as my source of inspiration. The sun symbolizes not only a natural element but also something hidden, reflecting a theme of introspection and the idea of consuming everything around it. This combination of detailed drawings and thematic symbolism enhances the storytelling aspect of the ceramics.
Entwined Summer
Oil on Canvas, 170 cm x 280 cm The twisted face and environment symbolize unsettling encounters in women's daily lives, reflecting feelings of both familiarity and strangeness and prompting reflections on the hidden depths and complexities of ordinary life. One of the two paintings is inverted, but they are connected to depict a continuous mountain range, symbolizing the connection between the inner self and nature. The inverted face is black, yet it simultaneously forms the mouth of another face. In the painting on the right, I outlined the shape of a face, while the left body faces the large face on the right, creating a sense of interaction. I used a lot of green, inspired by natural colors from my landscape photos, featuring continuous mountains and stones through water surfaces.
