Signs and marks are on the street. They are colorful, simple, and their shapes are round and square. They are symbolic characters. Signs and marks have information and meanings. They give information to the public. Public follows the Road sign. This has meanings such as going straight, turning right, and stopping. This is the rule. They order us, and we follow it. Someone can drive or control the public, by manipulation through the signs and marks. Furthermore, someone surveils and restricts the public.
If someone sends signals and their messages, to control us, to incite us? What if there is one-sided communication, not communication with each other?

I make work that integrates video projection with sculpture. I utilize various materials to make the installation, for example, wood, iron acrylic, fabric etc. And then I take video projection into my physical object and installation. Video art is a work without physical properties. The use of physical material and projection mapping together can produce a visual result of a more diverse image.
My works reveal the things around me. My surrounding environment affects my emotions and conditions, and it directly connects to my work. The work begins from the question of what space I am in. Therefore, I concentrate on the keyword ‘Space’. This includes whole categories which are the meaning of space, physical space, and political space etc. The works are shown differently depending on how I interpret their space. These interpretations range from conceptual explorations of the meaning of space and place to formal explorations of the geometric qualities and contours of spaces.
