NEXT TO DAD︎︎︎

︎ 2022 Publication



Born and raised in a culture where a father is the most influential figure in the family, I got a lot of inspiration and motivation from my father. When I was a kid, he introduced me to various things based on his skills, one of which was drawing. He told me to distinguish between a hobby and a passion. “You can easily envision your future if you keep doing the things you are passionate about.,” he said.

Dinner Time
︎︎︎3’26” video work
︎︎︎Constraints: Film dinner meals everyday (30 days)
Why dinner time? Dinner is the best time for me and my family to have a conversation to end the day. In 2020, I started a journey to live alone, away from home. The first thought I get every time I wake up in the morning is What should I make for dinner? This video is an observation from everyday life, experimenting ingridients, multicutural meals, and hometown meals.

Exhibited at V2 Lab Rotterdam

30 DAYS OF DRAWING︎︎︎

This drawing activity has helped me to reflect on myself. I started categorizing the prompts from my daily routine.
During the first daily routines I faced myself and in turn got to know myself better.
