Task 2 —Talking Patterns_sera
- Malfunction
- Due to prolonged illness, I was unable to observe external subjects. Instead, I studied my own body’s subtle changes, translating sensations into visual language within my sketchbook.
- During my illness, the pain and subtle tremors in my throat and teeth became the focal point of my contemplation. Unable to explore the external world, I turned inward, examining these subtle shifts in bodily sensation and emotional fluctuations. Using watercolour, ink, and coloured ballpoint pens, I employed a layered drawing technique to capture the body’s rhythms and instabilities, transforming the tremors of my teeth and the state of my mouth into multi-layered visual records. Through repeated layering and transformation of these forms, the paintings emerged. I transform these into print-like compositions, experimenting with colour, transparency, and visual rhythm. This process serves both as personal documentation and as an exploration of how materiality and repetition can visualise inner discomfort. Through layering and distortion, I convert bodily fragility into patterns suggesting tremors, anxiety, and metamorphosis, reflecting the intertwined realms of physical experience and emotional perception.
- The state of tension in the oral cavity during illness, a process of constriction and disorder
- During my cold, the ache in my teeth felt like countless tense moments, as if mushrooms were sprouting from them. I meticulously captured these sensations and transformed them into print-like compositions, exploring how pain and fragility can generate vitality through layered arrangements
- Plant Garden
- Through close observation of various plants at home, I recorded their growth using mixed materials and collage drawings. By shifting perspectives and magnifying details, I explored both organic forms and everyday chaos, finally expressing these layered observations with oil pastels to capture texture, intimacy, and transformation.
