In Between / Moving Images / 7m25s / Hong Kong / 2014
My creative artworks focus on wearable art and the exploration of materiality and body. Based on a different theme, I sculpt wearable pieces on human bodies to discover the possibility of various materials, forms, and structures. I wish to create a novel view on the wearable piece that combines fine handcraft techniques with digital technology. The materials I used in every project may not be the same. Yet, they are linked by subject matter that determines the forms and the relations of the artists and the receivers.
I use moving images to work on my wearable piece to investigate the relationship between wearable and unwearable. It is ambitious and yet meaningful to challenge boundaries of “clothing”. The generalized definition of “clothing” is the coverings on human bodies which is touchable in a conventional sense.
The construction of smoke dress defies logic. The exploration between touchable and untouchable, formless and solid, changes and unchanged, illusion and reality.
