Chan's manipulation of plastic with epoxy clay endows her work with a new haptic sensibility that activates our tactile imagination. In Lithic Current (2023), discarded bumper packagings are carefully sculpted to resemble stone, yet their supple bend and hollows hint at a certain plasticity similar to the weight and volume of the sculpture's central pallet fragment. The indeterminate materiality and physicality draw us closer-could this mysterious ovoid with a mineral "eye" be an ancient animist totem or some futuristic stele? - Joyce Hei-ting Wong
陈丽同运用环氧粘土改变塑胶的物质性,为作品赋予了一种激发触觉想象(tactile imagination)的匠心。在《石流》(2023)中,废弃保险杠被形塑成石质一样,但柔韧的曲线和窟窿,暗示着一种跟中心托盘残块的重量和体积相似的塑胶性。暧昧的物质性和形态引人入胜--这带有"矿物眼"的神秘卵形雕塑到底是古老的泛灵图腾,还是远自未来的石碑?——黄熙婷
