it's new year soon! (in Chinese calendar)
Happy New Year everyone!
Feels like I took a really long rest, haha
At the end of 2010, Matilda was working/ traveling/ moving and finally backs to Asia for a while...
It's always good to be home!
2011 is the 100th year of Taiwan; it is changing a lot, especially my hometown Kaohsiung... in a good way :)
So...
First, I want to share some thing i did at the end of last year...
"Coup de ville 2010 in Sint-Niklaas Belgium"
It was organized by WARP contemporary art platform, from 11.09.2010-24.10.2010
Sint Niklaas is a town in between Gent and Antwerpen in Belgium. Warp invited contemporary artists from all over the world residing in the houses of citizens it the town.
Follow the map you can easily (can be difficult sometimes, cause the view in the town is beautiful!) find a sculptures, installations inside people’s house.
At the same time, WARP also invited curators/critics/artists from different filed to join the conference, exchanging their point of views, and showing each other portfolios. Artists were living in the caravans. Here is the container that Matilda was living… couldn’t help to draw on window and pretend there is a real curtain, haha.
Our container were built in a market square, the caravan for meeting was built by artist Karl Philips.
There were two cute caravans for security guards as well, cause we actually lived in an open space.
Please allow me to write the description for the exhibition later. I have to say it did open my mind and learn a lot during this event, meeting some nice and wonderful people; Matilda would live to do this again for 2011.
A hole on the road for bicycles.
A lady called Elie Van, gave me a card and gave me some nice suggestions at the end of the journey, and chocolates from Belgium is one of the best of course. :)
A Lovely Explosion

Matilda's new installation in work progress - A Lovely Explosion
[ Illustration Publication - EXPLOSION - Creative Brief]
The aim of this project is to explore new uses of illustration and free ideas from only using pencil on paper, take works to the real world, anything you can image that pushes the boundaries of the contemporary illustration story.
[ Explosion - A Lovely Explosion]
Media used: bubble wrap, ink, and paste
Name: A Lovely Explosion
Size: A0 (841 × 1189 mm)
In terms of reflecting to the main idea of this project to explore the boundary and idea of illustration, I tried to express ‘A Lovely Explosion’ via materials. The function of bubble wrap is protection by explosion of air bubbles, but the word ‘Explosion’ is a violent and destructive shattering or blowing apart of something. To show the contradiction of dangerous and protective, sweet –coloured inks were injected in to each bubble and constructed a hand grenade shape by water pixels; different colours also dissolve each other from time to time that present a slow and lovely explosion.

Everybody were busy with putting on works, our tutors Foz and Gary were walking around to help us.
"Matilda, what the hell are you doing?" Foz.
"I'm trying to hang the kitchen roll below the stair... by this plastic string..." Matilda.
"OKAY, let us help you!" Foz and Gary said
"thank you..." Matilda
"like this?"
"nope!"
"...or this?"
"no..."
"well...let us try this..."
"NO!"

"Matilda, I think the best way is screwing the roll on stair!" Foz said with a bit impatient
"...but ..." Matilda

Mysophobia - organic wall decoration
Mysophobia - organic wall decoration
Mysophobia

{ Mysophobia =潔癖感= Keppeki shou }
Mysophobia is a compulsive disorder, a reflection from mental to physical. In terms
of represent a metaphor for the contradiction of subject matter,
using abstract jellyfish to show beautiful appearance and dangerous in substance,
cleanness and dirtiness. The organic wall covering was cutting by several A0 size
Japanese rice papers. The action itself presents mental territory through physical
behavior.
The set of organic wall covering was connecting two rooms and a corridor from
clean to dirty.
Mysophobia - Organic Wall-decoration

As a collaboration exhibition, Matilda did a set of wall decoration for the topic, mysophobia. The working process had changed through a different aspect of metaphorizing this compositive disorder as jellyfish. Because jellyfish is a danger, clean and beautiful (appearance) , composed by 70% of water (person who has mysophobia washes his hand frequently). Using different brushes to change the concept from clean to dirty. At first, abstract jellyfish was drew on A0 size paper, through the process of cutting small pieces of circle by scissor, the action itself become a deconstruction, which means each circle was a single piece of jellyfish. The way of display in the space was from clean images (entrance and the first room) to dirty (the corridor and the second room).
