Shifting Identit(ies). 2018. Charcoal on canvas. 2.4ft x 4ft.

In this series of work, I explore about how cyberspace acts as a ‘Heterotopia’ site that allowed users to gain different identities just by signing up online IDs. By contextualising figures into Chuuni-poses which is derived from in ACG pop culture, I am trying to indicate that identity is a role-playing game. While people being online, it is possible to manipulate and control own’s identity by the data shared to others user and the activity pattern showed. These criteria suggested plasticity and fluidity of identities which influenced and inspired me greatly in my later works.
