Chan’s practice has a consistently appealing quality of humility and a paradoxical relationship between the familiar objects she selects and their unique manipulation. For example, the geometric form of the upper part of “Endless Consumption” was made by the inherent shape of polystyrene packagings. Coating them with layers of fibreglass and aqua-resin, she transforms the disposable packagings into a seemingly solidified totem which, however, retain their lightness and fragile quality on the inside.

A round shape cosmetic compact mirror was embedded inside the rectangular hole/micro space of the sculpture, reflecting the exterior surface of a seashell, which was inserted in the ceiling of the hole and his surface is only visible as reflected in the mirror. Meanwhile, an Imprint of a found leaf from her studio neighbourhood is in the bottom part of the sculpture oscillating the artificial plant in the front. Thus, she reconfigures the purpose and value of these objects in our daily life.
