Urban space, communications, body, dreams, strangers, are concurrent issues she deals with in her works in various media. Her recent works are focused on the use of video projection to manipulate reality, which she considers ‘revealing another layer of reality’. As a part of Dumbo Arts Under the Bridge Festival in New York in September 2008, she produced a video projection Babies, Under the Bridge; transforming an arch of the Manhattan Bridge into a uterus of birth and death. In Dream Falls, she invites audience to lie down on a bed full of pillows on which sleeping faces are printed and experience the dreams projected onto a layers of translucent fabrics. Through her works, she aims to provide people moments to emerge themselves into another layer of reality and bring a sense of life in urban landscape. She considers mundane urban spaces as her blank canvases where imagination hides underneath. To check more of her works and video documentation, please visit www.smellsdreamy.com [show less]
