摘要

Mutualism has become the driving concept of my artistic practice.The exploration of Mutualism,opens up may questions in relation to the Other,intimacy and the space in between.In daily life,I am inexplicably interested in some strange creatures that inhabit our world.A possible explanation for such an eccentricity,is that which is identified with otherness.Accordingly,I’m trying to search for something that could explain my“eccentricity”.By connecting with the animality inside myself,whenever I look at invertebrates and other small creatures,I transfer myself into those individual animals.This state blurs the boundary between animal and human.The relationship becomes ambiguous and creates a space in between.The challenge is to become deliberate about my instinctive fascination with other creatures from the natural world.Through this process,a deeper and more intense understanding of these life forms evolves.
