- Summary/Artist Statement
-
In contemporary practice, where the boundaries
between art and design are increasingly fluid,
afundamental question arises: what is art and what
is design? As a design student who wants to create
work rooted in my artistic identity, I experiment
with using personal artwork as the foundation for
design. This project examines how the fluctuation
of meaning occurs when artwork moves between
artistic expression and design application. - Genre: Art and Design
