This is a participantary work takes the form of a workshop exploring the living experiences.

​

It contains 2 parts.

Part 1 is 3D→2D. Draw the floor plans of others' previous homes.

Part 2 is 2D→3D. Fold the floor plan back to a 3D status.

I organized participants into teams, where one participant used verbal and non-verbal cues to describe a space they had lived in, while the other members of the group attempted to sketch a floor plan of that space. They universally found this task much more challenging than anticipated, often uncovering numerous personal life scenes and vivid details during the description process.

The "floor plan" of a living space becomes a politicized artifact, as the concept of "home" encapsulates a 4D composite of reality and fiction, integrating time, space, past, future, and imagination.

Finally, I instructed participants to fold the two-dimensional floor plan into different shapes, allowing the symbolic power of this plan to reclaim a 3D or 4D form, reinstating its spatial or temporal significance.
