BODY LANGUAGE aims to create new interpretations of how language can speak to us, by reimgaining shapes, forms, and characters of the written word, I am connecting and relating the visuals of language directly with the human form. An additional mini-collection of “paintbrushes” as the tools of capturing motion, the interplay of the familiar and unfamiliar, challenging and creating new pyhsical manifestation.
Using Chinese oracle bone inscriptions as the language system, it is the oldest picograph carved on bones and shells, incorporating historical and cultural elements with the unexpected materials and colours, giving it the playful and fun contrast.
