Hsiang Ching Chuang

A METAPHORICAL LANGUAGE TO DEAL WITH THE GHOSTS OF TECHNOLOGY

The space we inhabit in the world, including all the details of our personal lives, has been transferred to the communication devices we own. Our cellphone has become a miniaturized, independent being, a container of spaces that are full of multiple functionalities and obscure complexities. The drawing of Hsiang Ching (Chester) Chuang is a fantastical interpretation of the functions of the iPhone. It not only shows the disconnection between interior functionalities and outer appearance of the device, but the drawing also expresses how human beings try to understand the complexities of frightful technology by using a metaphorical language.
