Dark Spring, 2025

Installation photographed by Michelle Yap.

“In a space filled with natural light, our eyes naturally drift toward the quieter areas—corners where light fades and soft shadows form. When I first encountered the Community Wall,

what stood out to me was this gentle interplay between light and shade—how a line or surface can seem to fold into another through subtle shifts in tone.

I began photographing light and shadow in my surroundings, paying attention to their intensity and softness. These observations hinted at a kind of spatial depth—a place the eye could linger in—and eventually became source material for the works in this presentation.”
