FORMOSA ORCHID
lambskin, hand seamed, cotton, acrylic paint, meat hook, 2016

Formosa Orchid is inspired by the trauma of Taiwanese women caused during and after the Second World War. These women endured in silence all their lives both in body and mind, the deep impact of barbarity. These series was an exploration of trauma and included artistic research about the nature of disclosure and of the organic imprint of Memory.
