COUP de COEUR : Yung-huei Chao & her rooftops

Yung-huei Chao (from Bench 886 group) & her rooftops

« Jewellery is the building block put on to the surface of the body, and so are the constructional elements on housings and architectures.
I use the symbols of Taiwanese housing elements that people rely on, to create space within the compact city lives and frame ourselves into a secure and comfort environment. The unintentional action divides people into distinctive characters throughout the years.
I try to capture these actions being neglected for the ordinary, and magnify the images by retaining the icons and mimicking in wearable dimension.«
