| ARTIST STATEMENT: | - | |
|
I approach contemporary art practice as a set of experiments
that deal with the ideas of identity, borders, shared experience
and the power relationship between different aesthetic and
political regimes. Employing diverse forms of works -mainly
video, project-based works, installation, light projection and
two dimensions works- often involve the viewer to perform and
participate in a conceptualized structure derived from personal
my experiences in the state of migrant. From the fact of being
alienated from familiar coding system, I investigate the
separated and unified moments between individuals, which forms
and deforms the boundaries among us in specific locations and
times. By drawing historical, cultural and political
recognitions out of individuals, my works explore the complex
association between signs and their floating meanings travel
from original context to novel habitats. I code aesthetic and
politic elements in the works because I consider politics as a
basic shared sphere between people. In the one hand, while using
personal materials as the source of work, I keep questioning the
legitimacy of speaking private memories in public space; in the
other hand, I examine the way in which dominant power, mainly
from mass media, shapes our understanding of signs and our
assumptions. |
