  Tree! Tree! Tree!                                                      






  


  A 12-meter, tree-ring-folded artist’s book
  paired with twigs-and-plaster balance                           sculptures. Developed through walking,
  studies of the mutual loading of twigs, 
  and feedback into drawing, it presents images 
  in flexible deformation, addressing 
  migration and rootlessness while 
  inviting a sense of balance and symbiosis.

  We will ask: ‘What does all of this mean?'            




  An experimental film seeking meaning 
  between absurdity and instinct. 
  Beginning with a moment of “daydreaming 
  against the wall,” it captures the drift and 
  return of consciousness and invites
  you to ask again in the cracks of reality: 
  What does it all mean?

  An Anonymous Gift                                                  




  Through an absurd fable, the work 
  imagines a world of unequal power relations, 
  uses metaphor to portray real-world power 
  and oppression, reflects the predicaments 
  faced by young people entering society, 
  and invites viewers to consider 
  structural problems that are hard to eradicate.

  How to Cook Your Lover                                        






  An artist’s book integrating a series of 
  illustrations and installations, 
  inspired by my reflections on love, 
  exploring the parallels between 
  appetite and erotic desire.
