In the project, I combine the medium of photography and sculptures to create both photographic and sculptural assemblage. I use fleshy Sculpey clay to build up altered and fragmented bodies as my subjects, aiming to create a dialogue between the ambiguous nature of the objects and the space depicted in photographs- photography is the pictorial representation of mental states.

Project Description
In this project, I used found objects and disposable materials I collected in New York as my subject. Through the depiction of the lens and the constructed space I built in my photographs, I reinterpreted and reinvented objects with a visceral and anthropomorphic quality to speak to people’s physical and psychological experiences. My work travels through construction and deconstruction, animate and inanimate, in two and three dimensions, to revalue the one-time use of materials into a bodily and otherworldly representation. The sense of proliferation in my work reflects my emigrating experience - the uncertainty and fluidity of people’s status.
