Bernd and Hilla Becher

‘Bernd and Hilla Becher are among the most influential artists of our time. For more than forty years they have been recording the heritage of an industrial past. Their systematic photography of functionalist architecture, often organizing their pictures in grids, brought them recognition as conceptual artists as well as photographers. As the founders of what has come to be known as the ‘Becher school’ they have brought their influence in a unique way to bear on generations of documentary photographers and artists.’

One of the very few Chinese (mainland) artists who surprised me. Simply beautiful.

‘The Hunting’ PV

‘The Hunting’ Exhibition

‘The Hunting’ is a duo exhibition I did together with Zoe Taylor nearly 4 years ago, it was a very interesting experience of combining drawings with installation pieces.

Inspired by metamorphosis, hybrid forms, folk tales and ghosts. ‘The Hunting’ explored the ambiguous relationship between humans and nature. The title of the exhibition was inspired by a poem by Walter de la Mare.

‘O arrows, pierce me not! O horns, be still!
Sweet God, divine compassion have – Or Kill!
- Walter de la Mare

My contribution to Yoonna Choi’s book ‘Place, Practice and Ten Dialogues’

My photographs from Dunhuang and Yadan landform park have been published in Yoonna Choi’s new book ‘Place, Practice and Ten Dialogues’.
The book is a collections of ten interviews with artists and designers from ten different countries who live and work abroad.
Carefully selected and interestingly conducted by Yoonna, the book discusses about many aspects of being ‘foreign’, from its physical conditions such as geographical locations, languages to more philosophical and cultural approaches. The book looks at a the subject from a designer’s point of view which offers many unique perspectives, definitely worth reading.
