Jing Huang: Loop, 2021-2022
‘Loop’ is a series of works that indicate no beginning or end, but places an emphasis on the path itself. Amid the dislocation and ambiguity of being neither here nor there, I anchor myself by tracing my past and taking inspiration from the early memory of my hometown (Guilin)’s landscape after a long departure.
Turning around, up and down. Life is a journey rather than a destination for me. Every experience that happens in this process is significant – some destinations you can only arrive at by making a detour. Until I moved away from home, I had little conscious appreciation of my environment. ‘Loop’ is not only a representation of the actual landscape; it mirrors the feelings of respect and appreciation for my past, culture and tradition. It’s a process of seeking a deeper understanding of my identity.
