Dual Dreamland

In each of these bodies of watercolor works, the artist decomposes and reorganizes different scenes in her dreams to break the boundary between reality and dream/illusion.
Where I am

Feeling and representation, the interior and the exterior, the past and the present, reality, duality and diversity, is the predominant theme in Wang’s work. When she lost the simple ways of entertainment and leisure that she had in her life before and became trapped in a fixed space, she dived into the digital, unlimited space letting her mind feel free to discover possibilities.
WHERE I AM presents when the body is in one place and the mind wanders to another through the combination of different painting styles. Using digital painting and animation as mediums to express her viewing and feeling when she is diving. Show what her interior world looks like in physical space, re-enter herself, and show how internal consciousness and external space connected.
Considering the relationships between feeling and representation and other dualities, Wang combines different scenes and painting styles together in one piece through digital devices, which is a kind of representation. Then think of the representations as an art language to represent personal feelings, thoughts and experiences. to talk about digital and physical space, conception and materiality.
