《翻转》是一组定格动画视频作品。艺术家通过对拾得物的转化，揭示那些常被忽视的内在复杂性。这些物体的短暂过去状态在数周内被逐帧记录，并压缩成简短的动画。其转化过程成为一种隐喻——象征个体在短暂外向中所经历的不适与挣扎。
这是一种既是行动又是反应、既是表达又是退缩的表演。作品探讨了为了“融入”所需的扭曲与妥协，并引导观众反思：那些沉默表面之下，究竟隐藏了怎样的深度与脆弱。
Everted Sanctuaries is a series of stop-motion videos. Found objects are transformed to reveal complexities that often go unnoticed below the surface. Transient past states are incrementally recorded over weeks and compressed into brief animations. The transformations become metaphors for the uncomfortable process of becoming temporarily extroverted.
This performance is simultaneously action and reaction, assertion and retreat. The work explores the contortions necessary to fit in and asks viewers to consider the depth and vulnerability concealed beneath silent surfaces.
