Ceramic Sculpture “Find Me”
“Untitled” Hat fashion sculpture
Ha. Refining this hat fashion sculpture.
“Double America 2” 2014 Glenn Ligon Neon and paint 48 x 145 x 3 in I went to the Broad for the first time in my life, but it felt so familiar. I know and learned about almost all of the artworks and artists there. Even though there are artworks I never learned anything about, they are so famous that I see photos of them on social media all the time. I really wished that there is a wall didactic for this piece so that I could write more and know more about it. I have always interested with neon light works, and in fact I have been trying to find an industry where will allow me to experiment with industrial light work. At first I was wondering what kind of neon light this is - that the top surface is black and everything else is just simply neon light tube. Then I realized that it is just black paint that covered the surface. I then immediately fell in love with this trickiness. I am not sure about the conceptual meaning behind this artwork, but I guess there is something political and social. I love the way the light turns on and off - sometimes only the top America lights, sometimes both of them light, and sometimes they are off together. In my art practice, I always drive for delicacy and cleanness, however, the wires that are coming through and out of the artwork are messy but organized in a wired way. I really like this artwork and I hope I could have take a picture with it but I was kind of embarrassing to ask a random person to take it for me.
How do your social identities relate to the work you make?
I believe that the way we are form the work we make. I guess my social identities would be a fashion blogger, a formalist artist, and a minimalist photographer, at least on Instagram. All the social identities I have force me to do the kind of work I make. I love fashion, so my artworks that are not considered as fashion have strong fashion senses. I love minimal things, so my artworks are minimal. I like to document the beauty I see in life, so the documentations of my artworks can simply be seen as photography.
working progress on my “runway”
I went to the Institute of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. This work is titled “No Space Hidden (Shelter)” by Abigail Deville. This work is combined with sculptures and installations, which is something I should love. Yet, I don’t think I like the materiality. But simultaneously, the techniques she uses in her work and the scale of her work are fascinating to me. First of all, I have always wanting to create huge sculptures and installations but I have never had a chance or place to do. Therefore I am really glad that I could experience within these large-scale sculptures and installations in order to feel what my work would be like in a scale like this. Secondly, Abigail Deville uses the technique of repeating one material over and over again. In my works, I also like to limit myself in the choice of material with multiple of it in a repeating pattern. I have always loved this idea and technique from the very beginning in my art practice; all my artists of influence have that same aesthetic view. Nevertheless, I don’t appreciate her choices of materiality. They are found objects, and very organic. My art is more geometric, structured, and clean. Even though my materials are cheaper, I still look for high fashion in all of my art while Deville’s art is more junky and dirty. All in all, Abigail Deville’s work inspires and encourages me to go wild and crazy in expanding my art in the field.
Getting more wood for the "Runway". Actually laid them out compositionally but forgot to take a picture. Exploring color or colors I should paint with - sky blue; metallic silver; gradient?
You work with various materials, how do you go about choosing them, what is your criteria? I care about the form, therefore my materials usually are already formally aesthetic themselves. I work a lot with wood, balloon, mirror, and stuffings. I love geometric shapes. The different beautiful forms I can create with multiple of one single simple shape makes me crazy. My materials and works are often clean, except the stuffings. However, stuffings are so flexible that I can form them into various forms according to what I want at that moment. Color is a strong element in choosing my materials. My art is color-limited. The only colors I have used so far are black, white, and blue. Even though I can always paint my materials, I still like them to be the color I want at the very primary stage.
Just took the balloons off the mannequin. Going to experiment balloons with fiber glass. As well as making real wearable fashion.
“Fantasy” Fashion Sculpture with Balloon and Stuffings
If I had more time, I would continue making this sculpture larger and larger. Balloons are fragile though, I should maybe try fiber glass. And, I will try my best to make this fashion sculpture into fashion, so that people can actually wear it.
“Runway” Wood Sculpture with Stuffings
I love the "runway" idea, and I'm actually going to go off for this idea and continue making many of them. Then, eventually, my show will have a runway. One person suggested me that what if I focus on the things about fashion rather than fashion itself? For instance, what if I just focus on the runway instead of fashion design? I love this unique idea and I'm thinking of what I'm able to create off this idea.
“Untitled” Wood Sculpture
The metallic silver is something I have never done before, but it turned out really well. The foil was a last second idea and that's why it looks so cheap. But I'm in love with the glow on the foil. I'm going to find another way to make the pedestal shiny and reflective. The wood grain makes the whole sculpture a lot cheaper. Next time I will get rid of the grain and make it as clean as possible.
