#013 Hello Daddy How Are You I Miss You - Paper Cutout

While exploring the idea of using technology, another contrasting idea came in mind which is to go back to the basic of using paper. I could create paper cut-out of my dad's silhoutte (refering to pictures that were taken in the past) and on the silhoutte is my message to him.

The message contain things and words that I would like to say yet chose not to. Somethings just remain the same and refuse to change even when the issue of distance has been altered. Perhaps the reason is due to our 'closed' personality, perhaps its the distance between us is too wide not only in terms of physical distance but also in terms of time that had been lost through the years. It could also be the typical excuse in relation to the mindset and values of Eastern people that Fathers and children do not express much to each other...
Then again, why would I still want to express myself? Maybe its because even if I show this in the context of an art project displayed in a gallery, he would never get to see it... so I wouldn't mind expressing it there and then.

Here's a video clip on the shadows of the cut-out:
