Form is not form form's sake.

Form continues to form form's interrelation.

 

 

All life is seen as part of a unified whole or a unity that originates from an unexplainable source. The universe is considered vast oneness. I want my photographic images: Form and Formlessness to be viewed in relation to metaphysical polarities: presence/absence, being/non-being, place/non-place, matter-sprit, lightness-darkenss, visible-invisible, and thing-thinglessness. 

 

Form is indefinite, unstable, imperfect and purposeless. Form continuously evolves forms to see how the meaning and senses interact in our everyday, embodied experience of space. My photographic images of enigmatic form blur the distincition between body and its reflection of shadow in water and sand. Form (body) and form-less-ness (its reflection of shadow) are eventually unified as oneness. I explored my body of work through embodied experience of body in interaction with shadow in water and sand in Fremantle, Western Australia. It is an objects-standing-beyond us (form's interrelation). It is not solely as a thing standing by itself (form's sake). As a result, in my work, I strive to emphasize not just the obvious visual representation, but the underlying symbolic narratives of the work.​ 

 

 The Visual Art project, which I participated in the Intertidal workshop was a part of large project titled ‘Fremantle on the Edge’ held in Perth in 2009. The Intertidal workshop was directed by Curtin University’s International Visiting Artist, Maria Blaisse, from the Netherlands, 15-17, April 2009.  The concept I developed for the photographic images was based on experiencing through unknowing, knowing through experiencing, was inspired by the power of the ocean and the experiments was based on five elements – water, sand, shadow, movement, and body.
