As I am interested in combing organisms and the precise grid system together and the effects of these systems on individuals, I found that the format is not limited to three dimensional objects, but also the flatter appearance as we can see on screen and paper. Most of my works have a relation to nature or dealing with the relation between nature and human, in other words, the contrast between body and mind, organic and artificial, and controlled and uncontrolled. I put most of my vigor into making sculptures and installations, which addresses issues related to the strict regulations and the softness of nature in contemporary society. As I am interested in combing organism and the precise grid system together and the effects of these systems on individuals, I found that the format is not limited to three-dimensional objects, but also the flatter appearance as we can see on screen and paper, and this leads me to create the series of work aimed to transform and simplify a stereo idea into a highly concentrated surface.
