The artists: "When I realized that there is no perfect place, I decided to create a dream world myself.
I try to design a world where fears and worries do not exist. My sculptures suggest a playful and colourful way to banish negativity and regain happiness.
“The Moving Tongue” is a moving sculpture. When it moves, it comes to life. It starts to banish and swallow fears and worries with its red tongue.
My works are like a charm; they present the idea of guardianship, the original intent of sculpture and painting in many cultures. Indigenous people fought their fears with magic; I fight my fears with “playfulness”.
My artworks act to protect against evils of the world, creating a space where worries and fears do not exist;
It is an imaginary world of its own."
