My World
2023
Installation of parquet flooring as matrix, a found object of an old drawing, a new print of oil on xuan paper size 200x300cm
In an experimental solo show centered on the installation work of My World (2023), the audience unknowingly steps into a space where the floor serves as a matrix, activating a unique print-making process. Before the show opens, the artist applies oil color and places xuan paper onto a hidden relief beneath the parquet installation. After the show closes, the artist collects the printed work underneath the floor area. This process is repeated several times over the course of four weeks.
The project reflects the artist’s innocent childhood imitation of a sunny day picture, created years before learning the historical context of Seurat’s classic work, suggesting a gap between art contexts and the absence of physical experience with a familiar work of art. For the audience, it might simply be another story about the bathers, as familiar or unfamiliar as their own footprints.
