Lobbin Liu

Lobbin works on how ordinary as well as unconventional sparks can be projected onto the work and how the way of working Influences the critical sight of daily life. How can a running bathtub, some leftovers in the fridge, a confession over a phone call with friends be inspiring and how can these moments be abstracted into one’s lifelong thesis? All these experiences in life shape who she is and infuse irreplaceable textures into her works. These works now are about developing an ideology, confrontation, as well as self-awareness. Lobbin sets her sights on not only something conventionally appealing but also something that people usually ignore, avoid, or consider taboo. Intentionally or not, her works are rooted in the moments of discomfort within conventional beauty and allure. She seeks the poetic within the failures, dilemmas, confusions, clumsiness, and stupidities that she deals with every day.
