“Fragmented truths are purposefully hidden behind the sturdy shell of a drawer. The messiest state of every identity has been thrown into the box by accident. Which one is real?”
“Gazing at the real exterior, we see a sheer layer of coat. A breeze evaporates into time, leaving behind some scattered sand. What is real?”
Through her work, Hu Hwei-Jing continues to engage in her dialogue with the world. Inside the drawer is a severed ear facing upward. Is it listening to secrets protected by the thin layers of the space? Clay objects in organic shapes, along with some severed body parts, are placed both in and outside the drawer. Something resembling a sea anemone gently wiggles its tentacles, waiting for someone to lift its cover.
