When the wind passes,
even it takes time to turn.
Why not slow down?
Let your gaze linger,
soften its pace —
between leaving and staying,
pause.
“Eye See, I Feel” takes Tin Shui Wai as the starting point, recording my observations and sensations while walking through the streets. In this deliberately slowed journey, I refused to label places by function. Amid society's rapid pace, try not to draw a rash conclusion; instead, feel the rhythm of the place, and try changing impressions into shapes. “Eye See, I Feel” invites the audience to pause between leaving and staying: first to observe, then to feel, and only then to express their insights and perspectives.
風經過時，
仍然需要時間轉彎。
為什麼不慢一點？
讓目光慢一點，
在離開與留下之間，
請先停下來。
《感觀》以天水圍作為起點，記錄我在街道散步中的觀察與感受。這是一段刻意放慢的路程，不再以功能標籤地點。在快速的社會節奏裡，嘗試先不急著判斷，而是讓視線、心跳與地方的節拍慢慢對齊，使模糊的印象逐漸「長出形狀」。《感觀》邀請觀眾在離開與留下之間停下來——先觀看、再感受，最後才表達自己的感悟與觀點。
PREVIOUS WORK
過往作品
2025
Acrylic, oil pastel on canvas
150 x 200 cm
By adding black acrylic and white oil pastel with an achromatic approach, this artwork shows an abstract expression of my fear of the gaze. As an emotionally sensitive person, I care deeply about how people look at me, and the gaze of others gives me a strong feeling of fear. Through the process of repeatedly painting eye symbols, I aim to lead the audience into my inner thoughts.
2025
Acrylic, plaster on canvas
120 x 150 cm
Doing artwork is a way to express feelings, so in this artwork I used abstract forms to capture the fear and helplessness of death by focusing on the gesture of struggling. By covering the bright red background with a black and white mixture of thick acrylic and plaster, I hope to show the inner struggle of trying to escape from death.
2025
Acrylic, gesso on canvas
112 x 200 cm
I wanted to bring the audience into my mental space.By visualising the situation of facing challenges, I created a unusual view of a water surface. Adding white acrylic on blue background shows the inverted positive and negative space, representing the transition of from reality to mental space.
