This piece is part of a series called 'Let Go.'

For some works in this series, including 'Watch,' I’ve committed to the frame as an integral and permanent element of the art. The collage objects not only extend beyond the frame but also wrap around the sides. I find this freeing, as if the materials had some autonomy. Perhaps it is just a chaotic coming and going, or a disregard for boundaries that feels like autonomy. Either way, the looseness created by incorporating the frame allows me to see scenarios of actions and consequences that touch a tender part of my soul. Sometimes, all I could do was watch these interactions unfold, appreciating the unexpected beauty they revealed.

More on the 'Let Go' Series:

Using a diverse array of collage materials, I enlist gravity's help to compose this series. After selecting my collage materials, I relinquish control and let them fall where they may—literally. In doing so, I suspend my thoughts and conditioned habits, resulting in outcomes more interesting than I could have imagined. Once the procedure is complete, I reclaim the power of assigning meaning, as we humans often do.

Much like life's journey, this series portrays a cycle of choice, chance, acceptance, and interpretation. I encourage viewers to spend time with the work, asking themselves: What could it be? What could it mean to me?
