Work: Look at the bright side
Type: Still Images (Selection)/ Photobook

Details:
Two artist books are created for the project "The Newer, The Better."

In this series, my focus is brought to the way newness is defined and produced in city-wide re-furnishing, and the hidden labour of maintenance used for its shiny surface.

Glossy papers are selected to depict flat-looking still images, to resemble the smooth, often western lookalike "modern"buildings.
Objects gathered from construction site were used across the book as well as to bind the book itself with force.

Via the specific materiality of book, it is intended to gather and re-interpret the experiences and ideas captured into a different
medium, to expand the way for the viewers to confront the piece in different dimension
