“As I meander through the streets and carparks, my fascination deepens with every trace left behind—the captivating imprints of paint and oil, borne from the wheels of passing cars. They emanate a profound sense of "freedom”.
One day, as my gaze fell upon the expanse of my studio floor, a revelation engulfed me—a hidden treasure trove of accumulated marks spanning eight remarkable years, from 2011 to 2018. To create "Marking Time," I carefully selected and scanned the chosen marks on my studio floor, printing on paper-like gesso boards with a white border, accentuating their significance.”
