About the theme of "model collapse"

In this series, I’m confronting the delicate balance between control and collapse, between connection and the invisible cracks that run beneath it.

The orange band that cuts through each canvas is not just a formal device; it’s a pulse, a fault line.

It represents that inner tension I often carry: the need to hold everything together, even as systems begin to strain.

As I worked on these pieces, I found myself obsessively threading lines, placing forms, only to feel them resist each other.

The grids were never quite aligned.

The wooden elements never fully settled. And that friction became the point,
the emotional undercurrent I couldn’t ignore.

These are not simply visual structures.

They are maps of emotional labor.

Each composition reflects the weight of trying to stay in sync,  with others, with myself, with the world, when the coordination itself feels fragile.

The more I tried to “organize” the space, the more it pushed back, reminding me that harmony doesn’t always mean balance, and that connection often lives next to fracture.  

This series lives in that tension, where order meets disruption,
where relationships stretch thin, and where even the most precise alignments threaten to come undone.

+ About the theme of plus minus
   playground

Plus Minus Playground is a series where I channel emotional contradictions, tension, anticipation, and playfulness through a language of abstract geometry, thread, and symbolic marks.

 

My process begins with mapping intuitive gestures onto a raw canvas: taped lines, yarn grids, LEGO bricks, and found plastic parts are arranged like fragments of a scrambled code or echoes of urban circuitry.

Each "+" and "–" becomes a sign of presence and absence, a negotiation between control and disorder.

 

I intentionally build onto the back of each canvas, embedding small objects that distort the surface and fracture its expected flatness.

 This subtle intervention adds dimensionality, pushing the work towardsculptural terrain, inviting the viewer to question what lies beneath,not just what is seen

+ Materials & process

Materials operate as active elements within the composition.

 

Color tape establishes boundaries and directional shifts, yarn traces fragile connections across the surface, and wood blocks introduce weight, interruption, and architectural resistance.

 

Together, these materials disrupt the painted field, allowing the canvas to behave like a lived environment, layered, negotiated, and in constant motion.
