XINYAO LIU

Most of the themes come from the reconstruction of small things in life. The main mediums are video, installation, sound and photography. Water and its related forms are the main materials of my creation. My research question is about the relationships between things appearing and disappearing, visible and invisible, tangible and intangible. Let the viewer re-examine the objects in daily life. I want to complicate simple things, re-familiarize clear things, and show the possibilities that materials are not realized.
