Unknown Objects

Unknown Objects, 2016

Each piece in this work stands for its own privacy. They resist being something apart from their own being, which makes them inevitably unknown.

The meaning of these objects are concealed or multiplied by making use of various tactics including contradictions, open-endedness, incompleteness, and ambiguity. These qualities make them somehow hard to communicate. However, their material vulnerability and inherent failure, and the mundane and impermanent characteristics of these objects bring them closer to us human beings instinctively.

The gap between hiding and revealing, becoming and decomposing, making sense and being nonsensical was searched through sculptures that could not make their way to become proper sculptures. The uncertainty in their being a sculpture or a studio junk promotes their authentic unidentity, which holds a huge potential that every unknown inhabits.
