Indescribable (2023)
Handmaking thread-bound book;
210mm*226mm, 28 pages; integrated materials.
We gain honor and dignity as we grow up, while we will gradually lose them when we get old. When an old person go to his or her end without being treated as a healthy individual, will he or she recall those honors and feel ashamed of the period of time without dignity? Based on my grandfather's experience, this project tells the story about dignity deprivation at the end of my grandfather's life. In this project, I mainly use pen painting and collage to present the two periods of my grandfather in turn, and I think these mediums offered this story a sense of chasing the past memory.
