In the project, I combine the medium of photography and sculptures to create both photographic and sculptural assemblage. I use fleshy Sculpey clay to build up altered and fragmented bodies as my subjects, aiming to create a dialogue between the ambiguous nature of the objects and the space depicted in photographs- photography is the pictorial representation of mental states.

Project Description
Through staged photography and sculptural installation, Rubber, Rubber investigates the
materiality of perception and embodiment.. As a foreigner in a new land, I work with overlooked
objects, sensing in their rawness a potential for renewal and communal belonging. Skin-like rubber forms are projected into space, interwoven with raw materials, found objects, and the artist’s own body.
The projections behave like skin—thin, porous, intimate, and protective—while also expanding into shelters, spaces the body can inhabit, simultaneously as subject and architecture. These dynamic assemblages collapse distinctions between photograph and sculpture, surface and volume, creating ephemeral constructions that echo both psychological and corporeal landscapes.
A projection installation, revealed behind a curtain, activates the viewer’s imagination of what layers compose my photographs. Material tensions and abstracted depictions of the body create a disorienting experience in which boundaries dissolve, identity becomes fluid, and the surreal intimacy of inhabiting another consciousness becomes reality.
