New statement

I am interested the institutional critique, especially explore the gap between the reality and the ideology in the museum.
The museum is a site to shape our knowledge about history through arranging the collections, however, when the reality is arranged, the alienation take place. There are some parts of history unspoken and hidden behind the main stories.
Meantime, the collections also distorts our view in a subtle way. People confirm the authority of the museum, so we readily accept all the information in an unconscious way.

I want to critique the authority of the museum, to challenge the people’s perception of the museum. My work is based on the mythologies and the death of the author of Roland Barthes. He has demystified the culture and attempts to create a system which enables to deconstruct the situation in order to understand the value system behind it.
