Super Blue Moon 24 (2024)
25 x 50 cm
Hand-dyed embroidered wool on perforated aluminum.

This piece is the culmination of a 6-month journey, creating a color palette influenced by the plants I eat, suburban flowers I encounter on my way to the studio, and experimenting with food scraps as dyes. The title comes as a reference to moon cycles happening when I created the embroidery.

Orange: onion skins
Blue: red cabbage
Brown 1: coffee
Brown 2: dried elderberries
Light green: thyme

1-4. Super Blue Moon 24 (2024)
5. Yarn drying at the studio
6. Metal Flower - Horizon: Zero Dawn
7. Wild carrot and nettles
8. Elderberry flowers

Field 11241 (2024)

Embroidered wool on perforated aluminum, naturally dyed materials
(onion, thyme), and stainless steel thread.

This artwork was realised in the context of my artistic residency Villa Formose - Nouvelles Écritures at the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts in 2024.

I am very grateful for the support of Bureau Français de Taipei, Institut Français, the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, the National Chung Hsing University, the Taiwan Ministry of Culture and Hermès Taiwan.

Experimenting with metal weaving.
From left to right: linen + steel / silk + steel / steel / copper + silver.
Just finished to mount them on the loom, the next step will be to experiment with different metal threads.
