Artist Statement:
The fiber art pieces I create
are not traditional images of
landscape as seen from the
external environment. They are
atmospheric, abstract images
mainly focused on expressing a
sense of place, or a mood or
feeling. My works also involve
many dilemmas such as life and
death, sorrow becoming
pleasure, and adoration versus
loathing. When creating, I
often take a moment to juggle
the values and anticipate the
consequences. When I struggle
with my life, I am drawn
toward Nature, which does not
deceive me. It is always
genuine, sincere, and
tranquil, yet solid; that
inspires me with an
unabashedly beautiful and
poignant dialogue. Thus I
combine abstractions,
geometrical constructions and
transformations in the
composition and design of my
artwork.
To begin, I weave a web and
create a grid, and then push
the limitations of that grid
by adapting and resurfacing
with fiber and non-fiber
material. On this base, I
create the image in contrasts:
transparency and opacity,
defined edges and amorphous
shapes, hairy textures and
smooth surfaces, matte and
shiny, intense color and
subtle hue, light and shadow.
In the recent works, I have
tried to disclose the process
of transformation from an
original source of design ...
