Artist Statement: 


My artwork explores the relationship between light and space and a redefinition of photography through diverse mediums such as collages, installations, site-specific projects, and photography. I am seeking the regulation of time, ideology, and memory in the space we are living in, which is the continuous progress of the timeline, recombining and splicing the memory fragments in the present. The viewers are invited to experience the symbolic intention in semiotics to understand image in an intuitive way. I materialize the memory fragments of the surroundings from conscious space into the physical space to show the ideology of the current environment.
