Artwork Gallery – Magazine Issue 4. Dream Big

Intro from editor: This issue brings together works about fictional, sometimes fantasy, worlds, the expectations of a dream and a collision with reality. Get ready to see many parallels and different perspectives from artists from all over the world! This issue came out in its own unique way precisely because a dream is a very individual concept. Here are collected experiences and disappointments due to expectations and collision with reality. Some artists share their thoughts on the trap they fall into due to community and imposed patterns regarding gender and your role in society. Other artists - dream of showing their country in a different light, developed and advanced, throwing off the media’s biased templates. We are glad to show you the world through the eyes of artists from different parts of the world and look at familiar things differently!

This issue came out in its own unique way precisely because a dream is a very individual concept.

Here are collected experiences and disappointments due to expectations and collision with reality. Some artists share their thoughts on the trap they fall into due to community and imposed patterns regarding gender and your role in society. Other artists - dream of showing their country in a different light, developed and advanced, throwing off the media’s biased templates.

It is exciting that in your background, there is an education in the Industrial<br />

Design and Design for Emerging Technology field. Do you think this knowledge<br />

makes your projects so unique and “fresh”? After all, you are moving away from<br />

the traditional approach of using ready-made materials, and, in fact, in recent<br />

projects, you are growing or creating new/alternative ones.<br />

While my background in Industrial Design<br />

may not inherently make my project<br />

uniquely special, it undeniably exerts a<br />

profound influence on my fine art creation.<br />

The design methods I have acquired over<br />

time have evolved into powerful tools for<br />

my artistic practice.<br />

At the core of my work lies a meticulous<br />

adherence to conceptual design logic.<br />

Instead of focusing solely on the craftsmanship<br />

of objects, I prioritize the embodiment<br />

of abstract ideas. This distinctive approach,<br />

rooted in a designer’s perspective, sets me<br />

apart from artists with a more traditional<br />

artistic background, and contributes to<br />

the potential uniqueness of my work. In<br />

essence, my works tend to lean towards<br />

speculative design, where the form and<br />

appearance of objects serve as vehicles for<br />

conveying conceptual depth.<br />

As a result, my art transcends prescribed<br />

forms and presentation modes, allowing for<br />

a more fluid and open-ended interpretation.<br />

Furthermore, my design background<br />

leads me to initiate the exploration of my<br />

artworks’ forms through 3D models. These<br />

models act as the initial drafts from which<br />

the majority of my works are derived and<br />

developed.<br />

Let’s talk about your “Post-Birth Project”. How did you get the idea to work on it?<br />

Why did you decide to implement it?<br />

The inspiration for my entire project<br />

actually originated from the introduction of<br />

the abortion law in 2022. In many ways, it<br />

serves as a feminist-oriented starting point.<br />

The majority of my artworks are intricately<br />

linked to feminism, and this connection<br />

arises from my own cultural background.<br />

While misogyny is a prevalent issue worldwide,<br />

it is particularly pronounced in Asian<br />

societies. Growing up in such an environment<br />

, I have developed a profound interest<br />

in feminist topics.<br />

However, instead of presenting my perspective<br />

through a forceful statement, I have<br />

chosen to portray a utopian world—the<br />
