They
PROJECT BACKGROUND
2021 Printmaking Ink on paper H 300 cm x W 100 cm
PROJECT CONCEPT
My artwork in this series of works entitled ‘They’ is about social groups or phenomena. The four main components include restaurants that have stopped providing dine-in service, waste pickers, homeless people, and cleaners. Why is the title of the work called ‘They’? Why do the characters in the work have no expressions? I intentionally portrayed the characters without faces as I believe that people’s gestures alone can well express their hearts. The project of ‘They’ does not designate any particular person, as anyone can become one of the characters in the project of ‘They’. I hope that the audience can have a sense of involvement. In fact, if you are one of them, you may have your unique feelings, too.
