As a sculpture-based artist, my work attempts to integrate with the external environment and aims to reach the visual effect somewhere between complexity and simplicity. I am inspired by the characteristic form of minimalism – the cube. I tend to use this simple object as my essential shape to create a complex and chaotic vision.
Conceptually, I explore the relationship between the work and the space by combining 3-D objects with 2-D images from the environment. I use reflective materials to visually expand the work infinitely and choose to place the mirrored cubes outdoors, which allows the spectators to experience the changes in space through viewing the installation in different positions.
The work reorganization presents a series of acrylic mirrored cubes of different sizes. By arranging them in open areas and evoking the environment through the mirrors' reflections, the cubes dissolve as a part of the space and form dynamic reflections on its surface. This series seeks to reconfigure the area without changing the spatial structure. By absorbing the elements of the environment and natural lighting, the work also embodies a state between visible and invisible.
