Rorrim / 2021


 
Interested in exploring insomnia and quotidian liminality, Chan uses industrial material to create uncanny sculptural forms that reference domestic space, forming a fantasmatic theatre that works as a heterotopia, a term that describes spaces which are at once real and virtual. One such example of a space is a mirror, which features prominently in Rorrim-a mirrored spelling of "mirror", reinforces the theme of inversion and otherworldliness. Drawing inspiration from Edogawa Rampo’s The Hell of Mirrors, Rorrim serves as a portal into unknown dimensions and alternate realities.
