Edge-Flow: Rebirth and Transformation

Reperceiving those gradually melting contours——the boundaries are quietly beginning to loosen.

Self and other, emotion and information, inner and outer, everything intertwined, blurred, ultimately forming a brand new, indescribable landscape. Through the "face"—this most familiar yet most mysterious motif—I explore the "edges" of existence in flux. It is a dialogue with another self, continuously emerging even as its form gradually dissipates.

In recent years, my creations have entered a realm where "Edge" (the concrete form of a face) and "Flow" (dynamic and abstract fluidity) merge. In contemporary society, aesthetic standards and values are diversifying at an accelerating pace. Once clear boundaries—balance and imbalance, consciousness and unconsciousness, human and AI—are now gradually merging, constantly renewing into new forms. Through social media, the individual self gradually dissolves into others. AI is no longer just a mirage in the mirror, but a "real existence" that permeates our lives and creativity. Even the boundary between artificial and non-artificial exists in an ambiguous gray gradient.

Since my earliest memories, I have been deeply attracted to the motif of the "face." The face is both a "perceptual entrance" for receiving external information and an "expressive organ" for projecting inner thoughts. In modern times, the face is no longer just a physical appearance; it is also a symbol of complex communication and the last bastion defining the self. As the boundaries between "self" and "other," "inner" and "outer" gradually dissolve, we still strive to maintain the "contours" that constitute our self.

I believe that contemporary reality exists within these "flowing boundaries" and "fading contours." I attempt to capture the multi-layered perceptions that arise at the moment forms disintegrate and begin to flow——that is the constantly changing state of "edges." Through the window of "faces," I will continue to depict the scene of "rebirth" contained within this chaotic era.
