IMPROMPtu WHEREABOUTS Series
2011-2012



Impromptu whereabouts explores the rise and fall of places through physical and emotional conducts. I like to work with random juxtapositions of places in nature and the urban environment and re-present them in puzzling and surprising contexts. Shifting between abstraction and representation, I explore and experiment with the push-pull effects between the concepts of longing vs. apathy, insecurity vs. comfort, order vs. chaos, unfamiliarity vs. belonging and stability vs. ephemerality. I am intrigued by the idea of fragmenting and connecting which reinvestigates a place by reconstructing or not of renovating while destroying it. Here, I am employing the possibilities of a new location, a new order devoid of any preconceived identity.
