Installation 《Come in, please》
Due to the apartment-like nature of the exhibition venue, I decided to simply arrange my space as a bedroom. In addition to the basic furniture, there is a huge mirror facing the door diagonally, so that people passing by can peek into the room through the mirror.
The three walls of the room are covered with my paintings.
During the opening ceremony, I lay on the bed three times. When I lie in the room, people hesitate to come in. Even if they know that this is an exhibition area, the private situation caused by the smallness of the room will make them ashamed to enter. And when I am not in the room, some people would even lie in the bed to rest.
Like the paintings I hang in the room, I am very interested in the exploration and expression of privacy. The whole room seems to be a part of my body that I have opened up and invited others to watch. The whole room is also dialoguing with the audience, like my substitute. Compared with the bright and smooth, I prefer those awkward and tense moments. It seems that only those details are unforgettable and real.

Performance 《Bride's love eternal wind》
In Madeiros e Almeida House-MuseumFondation, an old villa converted into a museum, I wore a wedding dress and isolated myself as if in another time and space that did not belong to the house or the opening ceremony, without any communication with anyone.
A wedding dress is a kind of clothing that is only worn at a specific time and occasion. Whether it is wearing a dress in such an old house or at the opening ceremony of a contemporary art exhibition, it makes the scene very surreal. At the same time, it also gives this venue (place) and the ceremony (time) a new function. In the following week, I sat in different places in the museum for an hour per day. Visitors saw a bride sitting on the bed as soon as they entered the room. Since this museum is also a house, a private, subtle but very abrupt feeling arises between us.
