Abstract“The Formless Self” is my M.F.A thesis exhibition that I presented the contradictions that arise while negotiating the encounters between Japanese artistic techniques and forms of expression, which are rooted in its traditions and American artistic techniques and forms of expression, which are more liberal and free from traditions. Using metal, clay, drawing and mixed media, I will seek to create connections between figurative and abstract forms of expression. I intend to make objects out of combining figurative and abstract forms and clay faces that represent the hidden conflict that arises from the multiple intersection(s) of American and Japanese ways of expression in art. The everyday-struggle of comparing definitions of expressions from my home country and from being in a foreign country has inspired me to create a merging point of the negative and the positive. I am driven to connect the language of diverse materials in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional forms to metaphorically and poetically speak to the ambiguity of definitions in expression.
