Between suspect sketches and ID-photos, this series of work explores “identification” of a person. Using the technique of facial composite of crime suspects that we can find in newspapers, each work tries to reconstruct an image of a person. Juxtaposition of a caption, the format of which is to explain the content of an image in books, suggests the possible explanation of the content. Without the entire text/context, the caption remains incomprehensive thus demands the viewer’s imagination. In the act of imagination, the viewers are invited to explore various stories of what it means to live as a woman in a society.
