Yinyi Fung – MA/MFA
My practice explores the discourse surrounding topics such as conflicts, power relations and identity through investigating specific emotional, psychological and politically charged materials. Oftentimes, materials that I use are chosen deliberately to evoke the passage of time and convey a sense of dislocation. By utilising the specific qualities of the materials, my work often slowly manifests through the process of melting, dissolving, oxidising or collapsing. Through the juxtaposition of seemingly unrelated debris taken from histories and stories I attempt to scrutinise basic yet universal human needs such as comfort, safety, security and the sense of belonging.
