To be a plant in the gallery

11 September - 2 October 2022


’To be a plant in the gallery’, Lynn especially describes the artform by putting herself in the indoor space. She creates performative situations wherein she expresses herself physicality and the manufactured objects (paper and ink) as a representation of her collective interconnectedness with the natural environment. Paintings, poetries, and performances are her conduits to deliver the message of aesthetical summation, which is the link between the plant itself and the room. When you walk toward and closely look at Lynn’s works, you can see those subtle details that all came from flaws of the human body. The pores, the wrinkles, the uneven skin, the wounds, and the fat are the texture that Lynn yearns for bringing out. She invites the audience to gaze at the blemish of our bodies, to rethink the aesthetics of natural beauty and unearth the truth of the beauty in nature through her artworks.
