Their Own Story

Their Own Story #1, 2021, plaster, 40 × 20 × 3 cm

Nature gives rise to objects in distinct forms and structures,

each carrying its own narrative of origin.

The artificial objects of contemporary life also contain stories,

yet they are often consumed only for their function.

Everyday objects, though rooted in particular contexts,

are reduced in the city to tools that are used and discarded.

This work begins from a reflection on such functional consumption.

By separating objects from their functions,

I sought to reveal only their traces and forms.

In this process, the object shifts from a mere instrument to a medium of narrative,

retaining its individuality while intersecting with others within a shared field.

This structure resonates with human relationships.

Relationships, too, are often defined by roles and needs,

leaving individual stories obscured.

By visualizing the traces of objects,

the work proposes another way of approaching relationships

—beyond function, toward the “textures of relation”

that emerge where stories overlap and converge.
