‘Melting‘
In this series, I have been more abstract focusing on the face, the one-open eye, and physical lines that restricting physical, creative, and intellectual mobility. I reflect the feeling of waiting that melts the details and the singularities, with a clear physical line above the human who looks like he is drowning but still holding on to hope.
“I’m here!”
is a proposed series of screen printing. In the series I repeat the character called “One Open Eye, One Closed Eye” to tell the story of my immigration in the face of bureaucracy and hysteria. The character is drawn in rough lines and set among censored texts. During my years of trying to make a place for myself in this country, I have come to see my small story as a reflection of the larger political and social problems facing many people in these times of precarity and autocratic caprice.
