My work critically explores the duality of traditional Chinese family structures, examining the tension between control and the desire for liberation. Through distorted text painted on banner-like fabric, I challenge the hegemonic narratives of Confucian ethics, using materials such as oracle bone inscriptions and bamboo slips to evoke both ritual and disruption.
The fragmented text and imagery symbolize resistance to cultural constraints, while raising questions about the reconstruction of familial systems. What new forms of family and culture might emerge from this resistance? How do we balance tradition with the need for liberation?
By engaging with these complexities, my work invites a rethinking of cultural inheritance and the narratives that shape our understanding of family and heritage.
