Publisher Note

"coil" delves into the intrinsic chaos and noise of Taiwan, encapsulating the boundless possibilities within. Using a rapid, metallic visual language, the work depicts the excitement, disorder, and clamor of the city. Urban landscapes constructed from corrugated metal and plastic overlap and reflect in dark shadows, offering viewers a thrilling experience.

Yen blends images of the city's overgrown wild plants, extended plastic pipelines, roaring motorcycles, electronic signal static, distant chanting, and the tacky feel of the air. These elements merge into dynamic and vivid scenes, portraying the raw essence of the city's chaos.
The work aims to showcase Taiwan's unique character, guiding viewers to find order and beauty amid the turmoil and to feel a sense of connection and balance within.
