Abstract

My work and research are focused on iconography, culture contract and conflicts, system and logic, the concept of space. The pot as an icon is a starting point, this concept is further expanding to other subjects. My interest in the representation and assumption on objects and ideas under different cultural context is coming from my educational background and life experience from east to west. I address how my experiences reflect on the thinking and making process by analyzing the system I used to construct the work physically and conceptually. The concept of space (physical space and non-physical space) is discussed in the last section, which reflects my understanding of the interaction of ‘object to object’ and ‘object to the viewer’.
