Skin Series


The artwork critically views the relationship between the body and the fabric. It engages in the intricate delicacies of how the fabric is used to protect and shelter yet simultaneously hide one’s Identity. In the work, the fabric cloth is collected from different women and glued to the skin, thus representing another layer of skin. Associated with recurring concerns of hidden Identity, along with giving birth to a new one, the process became suffocating but liberating simultaneously. Through photographs, the subject matter can be seen in varying postures, each ascertaining its meaning.
