關於本次駐留|About Residency:

在重慶十方藝術中心駐留期間,我想創作一組新的作品,作為我最近名為“Deep in the bottom”系列作品的延續。在這個系列中,我在一個基於重複和意外的創作過程中探索了與精神和星象學有關的主題。

我剛剛在北京烏拉圭藝術空間舉辦的《你落日在我的日出》展覽,為我的創作過程提供了一個與中國的社會環境對話的平臺。基於這次經歷中獲得的回饋,我將探索新的創作形式,希望能豐富我的作品,這也是我在中國駐留期間進行文化交流的成果。

During my residency in DAC Chongqing I want to create a new body of work as a continuation of my most recent series titled “Deep in the bottom”, in which I approach themes related to spirituality and astrology in a creation process based on repetition and accident. 
The exhibition “Your sunset is my sunrise” that I just opened at the Uruguayan art space in Beijing has been a platform to open my creation process in a dialogue with the Chinese social context. Based on the feedback obtained in this experience, I will approach new forms of creation that I hope to enrich my work, which I understand as a result of the cultural exchange that I’m caring out during my stay in China.
