Seeds and Cell 
Ceramic Clay 
[16 pieces] 
This piece consist of 16 clay figures in the form of seeds and cells,  with the combination of the natural organisms. Showing the bond of these biological elements, a linkage between us and nature. These sculptures captures the essence and details of all the 8 pairs of the seeds and cell structures. Each of them vary in form, shape and colour. Through the transparent display stage, the piece would be showcased at a level that allows viewers to engage with it at eye level, incorporating the lighting creating depths within the pieces. Showcasing the correlation between both, one being the fundamental unit of life, both having the ability to ensure the continuation of life.

Embodied Connection
[Embroidery on Cloth]  50x120cm 
In this piece, the formation of the model and blood capillaries is captured through printmaking and embroidery. A combination of the inner and outer space of the anatomy. Blood veins are vital for humans, intricating these details into a vast tapestry of human biological ingenuity. This artwork captures the complex essence of humans, showcasing the intricate details of each capillaries, how they differ from one another. Viewers of this work would have to dive deeper into this piece as compared to other pieces, where they can look at it from a further level. Through these, it showcases how complex humans are as a whole along with how hard it is for us as normal human beings to understand our workings from a naked eye. 
[seeing the nature behind culture, seeing humans as part of nature, not having the nature culture divide]

Diminishing evidence [reduction print on lino plate 247.6 x 178.5 x 6.1 mm]
In this reduction printing piece, it depicts the process of the decomposition of our flesh and evidence left around to earth as time goes on, the medium of using lino reduction portrays the stages of flesh to bones being left behind. Capturing the stages from decaying of the flesh to skeletonization, the transformation of the human body and the impermanence of life, on how it can be reflected through the inevitably of time. And what is left ultimately the imprint of our bane existence. While it coheres with the interconnectedness of life and what we leave behind to the land. 









Curatorial Rationale


The curating theme surrounding my exhibition surrounds the interconnectedness of human anatomy and nature, the biodiversity bond. The work captures the complexity and similar forms, biological mechanisms such as the circulatory system within the human body and the natural world. Expecting to upbring the intricacies of the natural world and human body through different art mediums. 

Throughout the exhibition work the audience will go through various kinds of art mediums, from clay sculpting, gelli plate printing and embroidery has been incorporated in the creation of this exhibition, each method depicts a type of pattern or form that can be found throughout nature or human body. As such the embroidery emphasizes on the vitality of the capillary network, while keeping a balance between the vitality of the biological systems, creating a sense of harmony within the earth. Experimentation contributed in the making of these art piece,  the utilization of various mediums and techniques also reflected on the uniqueness of both interior and exterior forms in the natural world, including us, humans. 

The selected works, Seeds and Cells, have especially enhanced and replicated the form and unity of cells and seeds, both part-being one of the smallest forms in earth and humans, with the emphasis on the form and unity of the subject in the piece, it underscores the existence of nature and individuals around us are solely dependent on these small forms of life. Incorporating clay as the medium where clay is often seen as a raw essence of earth, this also holds a significant meaning revolving the rationale of this exhibition. By taking further steps, just like how biodiversity would mutate and evolve, Embodied Connection, has displayed both the inner and outer space of a human form. Not only does it captures the ingenuity of human anatomy, but also coheres with my first piece, mirroring the expansion of the biological elements.
