Thesis Exhibition
Artist Statement: Drawing from the ungraspable yet familiar everyday situations, her works reconstruct and reconfigure vignettes of domesticities into substructures. Her multidisciplinary practice addresses the subtle gestures that endow the objects of sensual qualities, the incongruous systems, and the uncanny.
