Jen-Ying Jenna Chang - Architect/Artist/Observer
I studied sculpture when I was fifty, studied for my master's degree when I was sixty, and maybe I'm planning to do a doctorate. I am glad that I have the ability to change. I have never considered myself as an artist, but I just want to change the status quo, or maybe it is just a big dream.
After compiling nearly 100 pieces of my works (with records) over the past ten years, I have lost or destroyed at least a hundred pieces, which is quite an amazing creative power. I don't have the habit of drawing and composing, usually when I look at what I think of or see, the image is already in front of me, so it's already done.
