HUNDUN
installation, 2022
Hundun is a faceless being representing primal and fertile chaos in the Daoist tale of the Zhuangzi. Its story implies themes such as the relationship between society and the individual, and the tendency of the majority to uniformise against
those who are different from them.
The fact that the originally amorphous shape of the mythological creature is being reduced to an anthropomorphic figure by a tight suit — as a classic type of uniform — points out ironically the narrowing of individuality and creative potential as well as the absurdity of ignoring nonhuman perspectives.
