Paradise Series
Installation view at Palazzo Bembo , Venice
Personal Structures , Venice Biennial 2024
Paradise series of paintings represents maps of the cities Mei-Tsen visited and those where she stayed. They constitute her paradise on earth, which continues to metamorphose, both physically and mentally, like the rhizomes. She wanders through cities, moving from one path to another like plants roots in search of nutrients. This is why her Paradise series is made up of vascular trees whose tentacles entangle themselves with the city maps like a spider's web. Through their beige, red and purple colors, thus draw an analogy with a living organism which weaves its nervous system and its blood network.
