Artist Statement:
"Silence I" is my first large-scale work, inspired by Deaf British poet Raymond Antrobus, titled "Silence."
He wrote, "There is a silence that deafens, and it is not quiet, it is not loud. It is the kind of silence that requires someone to listen to the things not said," which deeply resonated with me. Through this artwork, I explore visual sign language (Auslan) to bring that silence to life.
