NOCTURNE
This is a project in which all works are made from my own hair and paper, treated to preserve on a long term. Broken stockings and mirror are the additional elements in some of these works. Although these peculiar materials were made to appear abstract from a distance, as someone steps closer and realises their obvious materiality, they sense another layer of meaning beneath the seemingly abstract shapes.
Whereas some audience might read these works with erotic connotation, they are riddles to myself. The combination of broken stockings and hair creates provocative images. However, the intriguing texture created by the repetitive, meticulous layering of paper and hair delivers a meditative, almost monk-like state of mind.
