Artist Statement
During a week of the MCO, I felt struggle to be productive due to the shortage of materials. One day I saw my father’s t-shirt that has a liquor brand name (Corona) printed on it and expressed my wish to use it as the surface of my drawing. An odd experience indeed as I have to deal with a different understanding of drawing on different surfaces. Most of the images I drew are my family members, where I’m trying to capture the moment of experiencing this occurrence. By some means, doing artworks is about making sure that sanity is still there during this difficult time. Just hang in there everyone!

Artist Statement
In the context of space limitation that was observed by the artist, this piece emphasizes on the busy life of the people in various places that the artist has visited. ‘Rush Hour’ is an attempt by the artist to display scarcity in a particular space while placing caution sign that reads ‘FOLDING DOOR KEEP CLEAR’ written in both Mandarin and English on top his subject. Despite the contradiction of both text and the subject, the artist intends to cynically, tease the tense situation that were faced by the subject. Moreover, the subject displays a juxtaposition of space through its various scales. The text is composed rather loosely as opposed to the crowded outlines of his subject as to delineate the positive and negative in space.
