About the Artist SIN Ifie

Artist’s Note

My interest starts with claiming micro-visualization processes of human relationships in groups and society as 'labs'.  Here, as an owner and observer the laboratory, I am trying to maintain on external view to genders, appearances, and occupations. Observing individuals who have narratives, I mark them as cells to a society with social censorship and its rules. In modern society, 'objectivity' of science has superiority and almost absolute authority, and at times it feels even religious. Some scientist came to the point of insisting a "creation" of life. Observations and experiments which committed under the words 'rational, objective, average' and the scientist's omnipotent point of view are also the motives of my work.
