I BELIEVE THAT EVERYTHING CONTINUOUSLY CHANGES, EITHER BEING GENERATED OR DESTROYED. PRESENCE IS JUST A STATE OF BEING AND THE REALITY OF AN OBJECT HAS AMBIGUITY IN THIS SHIFTING IN TIME. IN MY WORK, I INTEND TO REFLECT UPON THE ASTATIC CHARACTER OF EXISTENCE IN THE FLOW OF TIME AS WELL AS THE OPPOSITE SIDES OF NATURE – THE NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE, THE CONSTRUCTION AND DESTRUCTION, THE PRESENCE AND ABSENCE, AND LIFE AND DEATH.
IN MY RECENT WORK, THE MICRO-COLLAGE OR PAPER MOSAIC, I ATTEMPT TO CAPTURE THE TREMOR OF UNSTABLE PRESENCE. TO ACCOMPLISH THIS WORK, I TAKE PICTURES OF PARTS OF THE BODY OR FACE, CHANGE THE COLOR AND SATURATION OF THOSE IMAGES BY PHOTOSHOP AND PRINT THEM OUT ON PAPER. THEN, I TEAR THE PICTURES AND PASTE THEM PIECE-BY-PIECE. THROUGH THIS PROCESS OF BREAKING DOWN PHOTO IMAGES AND RECOMPOSING THEM, FIGURES HAVE THOUSANDS OF TINY PARTICLES AND TEXTURES THAT MAKE THE IMAGES LOOK BLURRY AND TREMULOUS.
