About

Shao-Chi Lin is a Toronto-based fiber artist from Taiwan, and holds an MFA in Textiles from the Parsons School of Design. Lin transcends the structural limitations in weaving, exploring the possibilities of iterative events and patterns through woven structures. Guided by intuition and yet balanced with methodical discipline, her sculptures are meticulously crafted with woven textiles using paper yarn and natural dyes. In her sculptural exploration, Lin delves into ambiguous impressions and intuitive feelings evoked from engaging with the logical principles of waves. Her paper sculptures prompt communication between the two worlds of observed scientific facts and subjective understandings. The objective of her work is to awaken and nurture the acute sensory perceptions, inviting viewers to become more introspective of their own visceral responses however subtle or delicate.
