“Political consciousness is inseparable from my own art making...

The ordinary and everyday are important themes in my work, i.e., shopping, menstruation, household objects, and daily tasks. I never know where or what my work will come out of so I do not separate my art making from the activities in which I am engaged; and I like to feel free to express ideas through a variety of media. Television and other forms of mass media do not directly inform my artwork. However, I regard television, movies, and urban

advertising as the major artworks of today, in terms of their influence on and reflection of our culture.”
