ATC Zodiac

Zodiac Men

a series of ATC sent to USA under the Zodiac swap. pretty much similar to pameran poskad 2008 works but these are much smaller and i did some explorations on their chest, drawn zodiac symbols. did 3 similar ones for the postcards that i sent to overseas but that theme was superhero.

there is a sense of child-like works yet exploring matured themes in the series of men and acorns. from physical aesthetic to conceptual attributes. there is also a series kind-of-feel to my works which is intentional, as i want my works to be include the concept of collectibles, like trading cards which further deepens the concept of child-like products. a lot of playful tone in the work especially from the physical process of making.

a similar artist doing this combination of what is matured and what is childish is Chen Wai Teik. His photography work is combined with pages from children books and there's a blend between adults and kids. similarly, i want viewers to wonder, what makes a child a child and an adult an adult.
