Sylvia Chan

The themes I work with are order versus chaos, indoor versus outdoor space, and individual relations with each other and of their environment. I deal with dualities in my work, where the viewer is not settled with one but two aspects of seeing. My work deals mainly with the individual’s existence and of his or her own disintegration in relation to the environment. It deals with the dualities between what's been there before and what's there now. The buildings in which I construct combines the past and present qualities. Most of my work has architectural elements alongside with the ruins and decay.
