Miss Who

 

Miss Who’ Personas

 

 

 

The girl is an allegory for something deeper and darker, in the mythic unconscious of everyone,

regardless of sex….

You set up a space, or like a place where you can work with

no interference.

And that sort of ends up being your role…

  • dreaming mirror

Miss Who calls herself ‘white sheep’.

(……..girlhood imagination of sheep, angel sheep, bus sheep, taxi sheep, police sheep, fire sheep, Gypsy sheep, white paper & fur cloth sheep, ghost sheep, Sadako sheep, avant-garde sheep and more types. Why does Miss Who call herself “white sheep”?

One day they met.
He calls her a bird, she calls him sheep man.
Her wings are transparent, invisible. He said
‘I dream you dancing in the mirror’…..
‘Let me fly, you have to wait’
‘I wait so long, I can wait…’

3 China girl—substitute

 

 

 

 

 

The China girl is melting herself with her different images different personas which has many characters many colors. She is a substitute object for the man who she loves. She creates different colors, shapes as much as she could, to satisfy the man’s imagination of another girl, he used to love. She plays hard… in the end the man noticed Miss Who is not Miss Who anymore, is a girl who has such power, strength and quality inside than him, and he played her role…

4  A song for nature& future — who is it

(………A song asking me, to think about who inspired me. Who do I turn to to pick up, keep me going. I believe all stories had a theme of connected-ness. We are all linked. And humans must be close to one another to achieve peace. My inspirational muse of nature, of a simple friend is the strongest link I can have. They give me a crown that makes me feel like I can rule the world. Just to feel that way. And then I hand it over to the next person and inspire someone myself.

JUST STOP EVERYTHING

 MY DARLING DARLING GIRL, WRAP YOURSELF AROUND THE WORLD

 

Mystery of mysteries.. Plants, water and air are right there before us. Every time I view the nature, I felt a calming sense of security, as if visiting my “ancestral” home; I embark on a voyage of seeing, of finding myself.

This track makes me want to just stop everything. I think about the man I love, I picture a life of our in a place that meets our needs, keeps us happy and healthy. I wish I were using my youth more wisely. I’m scared thinking that I’m nearly 20 and my next 4 years are planned out for me.. I don’t want to miss anything. I want no regrets. I wish I could leave everything and I wanted.

In my work I’m not trying to give an answer to any questions, I just watch and listen to what causes my internal response very carefully. This project supposes to be just simply an extension of my feelings.

 My darling darling girl……..

 

Some scences (test works shot at Amersham)…immerse mentally into a hostile and unfamiliar environment. To put myself into this landscape, construct a space, to become part of it, to find a zone in myself where time and space will cross.

 

 

The first goal is to turn myself into s something else and try to express a sense of self finding self belongings through this transformation. I wanted to show the confusing or ambiguity of selfhood, self recognition and self finding.

Article circle, high land, Iceland .. I aimed that the geographic reality will give way to dreamy imagery.

 Also I refer to the concept of “home”, where am I belong to..

My practice functions around the notions of how I feel, understand, and remember and dream the home or a place..
