Sewing nahnahnahserena thought, 2006



Sewing nahnahnahserena thought, 2006
Plastic Kinetic Worms, Singapore -27oct to 4nov
In nahnahnahserena thought, 2-minutes-memento is a series of MS paint drawings; made into Hand Sewn Applique patches. Meaning making is inherent in whoever percieves the images/patches. The transference of meaning is the core of this work. Sewing is a process and the medium. Like painting, a mark becomes a line into a form. Entirely up to viewers to make meaning. All are welcome.

MODERN MYTH, 1999

Oil, Acrylic & Fabric paint on Canvas

(89x89)cm

*won me the ARTS AWARDS - ASIA PACIFIC 1999: VISION of YOUR FUTURE...

*this is what i wrote:

In history, India used to be one of the greatest empires, and later on, the United States, which are now, the strongest empire. It has been analyzed that if China continues to progress, it will become the next strongest empire. Einstein once said if the third war starts, by the fourth one, we will be fighting with stones and clubs. Many had predicted that the world is going to end soon because of the constant warring situation that many countries are undernow. My work depicts the mythological character pushing out the green creature, pointing towards the west direction- because I feel as much as we are influenced by the western culture, in current situation, when China is strengthening up, as a Chinese I feel the need to understand my roots and look forward to a more peaceful world.
