Artist statement
Dialogue is a coloured pencil drawing of a clay spatial structure that I made, which by endow the blank structure colour to project the consciousness of Soul. Using traditional drawing techniques and handmade traditional Chinese rice paper to capture the light on the clay structure. The drawing as an epistemological tool explores the consciousness of Self in the energy form of light through the colour and structural combination of a clay structure.
