Deep Emotions (Tulips)
archival pigment print mounted on Dibond, aluminum frame, 35 x 28 in.
An image is given to the memory; every surface is manufactured. What's in between the fictional and nonfictional reveals a complicated sense of belonging. By juxtaposing memory and imagination on one surface, Xi translates something that is untraceable and fabricates a new reality with archival images and handmade sculptural elements, to blur the line between fiction and reality.
