These three pieces were made with the remnants of my works for different exhibitions during different periods since 1990s. As the archive of my art career which is more than thirty years, they present the basic clues of my works. They keep being opened up, recording, covering and displaying. All the time, filing has been my daily work. It has already become my lifestyle and working style to record and store relevant objects, documents, pictures, videos and so on. I have been keeping the intensity of life to strengthen my sensitivity. It will bring about lots of questions, and new questions may be raised later when we are trying to find answers. It is a circulation. To me, there is no such thing as useful or useless materials. All of them together make up my job and daily life, including those remants of works and the remnants of remnants.

Newspaper·Bath Towel is the remnants of my early work Newspaper·Cloth in 1991, which reveals the influence on today’s private life brought by the 90s’ medium. Washing·News Water is the remnants of my exhibition in 2012. They are catabolised materials and media left behind by time. Per Square Meter·My Space is the remnants of Per Square Meter, illustrating my ongoing projects and potential clues of my works. Art is the touchable and sensible residue of my daily life. Remnants, are they worldly possessions?
