Tai, Hsin-kai

My practice explores transitional states of consciousness—between growth and collapse.
I translate fleeting inner experiences into perceptible psychological landscapes: valleys, slopes, fractures, and traces of light formed within the self.

Through layering of material and form, I aim to make internal states visible—not as descriptions, but as experiences.
For me, my work is not an object, but an extension of the self in the world—an ongoing process of becoming, sensing, and existing.
