Just realised that haven't actually explained at all what I am doing. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure either. Have hit that momnet where you question everything you're doing- does it make sense? Is it any good? What the hell is it?!

My problem is that so much of my philosophy is intwined in my work, that search for truth and questions, never any answers. All this process and no ending in sight, no work is ever resolved. Is that a way to practice art? Well, that's what I do…

My work focuses on the Other, afigural, especially that which is trapped/ co-exists within me. To explain, I'm chinese. Or at least, that's what I look like. But if you hadn't seen my name or my face, you would think I'm an average Scottish lassie. How can two people exist in one body and can they ever exist together at the same time? Maybe, if the dominant person is reduced to a point where they are no revelant in an Event, where their acts can open a fissure to allow the emergence of the Other.

Like I said, a lot of philosophy, no answers…
