Artist statement
Distinguishing between illusion and reality, my practice discusses the impermanence of childhood memories. Particularly investigating the significance of personal objects, A Forgotten Pandora presents nostalgic experiences related to an Asian/Australian Identity. Characterized by digital corruption, this projects the shifting dynamics of emotion.
