I am waiting for something.
One day I caught a mosquito in the duty-free area of an airport. For me, this mosquito was an apt symbol of our hyper global existence. It survives by sucking the blood of different races. And at the same time, it can be a dangerous vehicle for transmitting diseases from person to person. Holding this mosquito between my fingers at the duty-free shop I understood globalization in a deeper sense.
I think what I am waiting for is an entrance to know the world we live in, like this mosquito.
My work engages several media, including video, sound, objects, and storytelling. I consider time, information and experience as materials to sculpt models of the world structures.
