About the art
Artist statement
She uses her own face in a meditative state, borrowing from the Buddhism idea of oneness or “wo shi zhongsheng, zhongsheng shi wo” to represent all of humanity. The dilemma in her work becomes how to maintain cultural characteristics and natural landscapes visible in a developing society, without living in the past. Furthermore, how does a person or nation progress without selling out their environment, beliefs and culture.
