Inspired by kitchen sinks, drains, stoppers, hollows, and the objects that fill them. Everyday items are reshaped, paired, and joined using resin, symbolizing transformation, translation, and expanded interpretation both symbolically and physically. The choice of the sink also reflects the artist’s interest in themes of space, its inversions, permeability, and blurred boundaries. Whether it’s a bathtub or a sink, the imagery and purpose of cleansing simultaneously imply the existence of “filth” and the desire to “eliminate” it. I am curious about the world behind the drain, sensing a seemingly opposing relationship that harbors a subtle and profound tension.
