Seldon Yuan
Under the influence of poetry, my work focuses on a personal poetics of multiple perspectives that extends across a spectrum. From sculpture to installation to photographs to mixed media to text inclusive pieces, the body of work plays on ideas that triangulate on subjectifying and examining personal experiences, emotions, and environments by contrasting the indexical (such as photographs and mirrors) with subjective personal intervention and interpretation (such as cut outs and text) thereby inventing a lens to view and reinterpret the everyday.
