"The White Maze" is a composite image that was created by photographing painted artificial plants in various arrangements with a large format camera. Afterwards, the images were digitally woven to create a disorienting landscape. As a meditation on the sensory experience of being engulfed and lost in whiteness, the image critically adopts pictorial conventions of East Asian landscape painting to translate alienation on a phenomenological level, while questioning how territories and spaces have been colonized, imaged, and experienced throughout history.
