Silver noliiio
The silver is a dazzling grey.
Most of the materials used by Chen Yi-Wen in this exhibition come from plastic wastes picked up on the east coast of Taiwan and a recycling yard called Jintaihang.
These wastes survive the torture of salt and ultraviolet rays. Sometimes wonderful shapes are formed as a result, fading and abrading into proud scars.
Yi-Wen used these materials in her creations while contemplating change. The green string could be moved a little more to the right, maybe the blue net is tied together at the ends, what if the pieces of iron smaller? as if they were being moved by waves on the beach and crushed by the tires at the recycling yard.
noliiio is a translated word of Yi-Wen’s drawing of a melody by her friend.
