I bridge ancient practices and different knowledge systems through hybrid media practice, to examine the relationship between humans and non-humans including technology as a way of ‘re-enchantment’ in this AI-driven, techno hegemony contemporary world. I imbue my creations with ritualistic elements and symbols, envisioning them as 'sacred media.'
Growing up in incense-filled Taiwanese temples, I was immersed in ancient rituals and offerings to deities, which instilled a reverence for the unseen and nurtured an animistic bond. Drawing from both Eastern and Western perspectives, I use my creative practice as a means of distillation, whispering ancient wisdom from witches.

statement
My work explores the human-nature-technology relationship through a spiritual lens. I navigate the evolution of witchcraft into the information age, bringing its wisdom into contemporary sensibility. Through a post-humanist worldview, I investigate how nature, offerings, and chants shape human experience in an interactive exchange.
By creating techno-religious interactive installations, my work delicately combines visuals, audio, and other sensory experiences to blur the boundaries between digital and physical realms. The installation becomes an altar, and the interaction transforms into an engagement with ritual practices.
