Vija Celmins
Clemins’s works always give me a sense of meditative feeling. And I interested with the transformation in her art practice. How she choose the object to immit her own voice.

An Aside Selected by Tacita Dean
A book is written by Tacita Dean about an exhibition include Rodney Graham,Pual Nash, Fischli and David, and achieving a kind of magical realism.
In her mention of Rodney Graham's work , I am into how artist rediscribe the typewriter. Sieving flour over an object embodying such potential, undefiled by use to show its virgin and mint. 'And than, we lose our reference to it as a once functional object, ... and watch it as a still life.'
With this reference, I considered about how to focus on the objects, and averting storytelling, meanwhile, endow the work with my understanding.

Eadweard Muybridge
Eadweard Muybridge 's work makes me to ask myself what will happen if I just focus on object's movement ? Is it still meaningful?

How To Work Better, Fischli and Weiss
I 'm interested in how two artists make collaboration, and how do they make art so relexed. On the contrary of the playfulness, they has sustained investigation into the everyday.
No Boundary, Ken Wilber
The book give me a theoretical support in sociology and philosophy. The writer explained what the boundary exactly is, and how it be changed by growth.
You are a human and not a chair, and you know that because you consciously or unconsciously draw a boundary line between humans and chairs, and are able to recognize your identity with the former.
