LIN YUXIN is a visual designer and installation artist, currently pursuing an MFA at the City University of Hong Kong. Her creative practice spans a variety of media, including installation, video, and performance, rather than adhering to a single material or form. Through these mediums, she explores the social issues arising from the tension between local culture and modernization, as well as the diverse psychological states of individuals navigating a changing environment. Often incorporating natural elements such as sand and stones, she seeks to evoke a simple, accessible artistic experience that resonates with viewers on an intuitive level.

Abstract:
Intersection, expressing the changes of the times with the waves, it washes new things on the beach and swept old things into the ocean, shells are like people in the trajectory of the times are powerless in the face of this huge energy, pushed forward or backward. Animals that survive expect to be washed up on the beach and breathe in the fresh air, while And the dead shells will gradually wear off in the waves; Just as in the current wave, people's self-will is slowly turning into ashes in the process of change. This is the era of the rapid development of the Internet and virtual technology, but also the era of homogenization and nihilism, young people are separated from the real world under the guidance of the media, and pan-information erodes the human spirit, until the self-consciousness dies, falling into the nothingness created by capital and the media. People need an opportunity to let go of the standard answers of all kinds of social media transmissions in their hands and, through nature, reconnect people with their own spirits.

Abstract:
At the moment, education levels and status are considered equal; in fact, it is a false perfection of intelligence created by a combination of success theory and capitalism. Having an advanced degree is seen as a form of success, while those who have not obtained one are often discriminated against. The demand for intellectual perfection, hidden in society, families and even relationships, leads them into mental internal conflict. Young people need to be awakened to the fact that this is not the uniform standard that defines them and that they do not have to give up their individuality in order to achieve this absurd perfection.

Abstract:
Under the urging of capital, the original position of people and item has been reversed. "Valuable" objects have become people's admiration and possessiveness, while those worthless objects are like primitive worship objects that cannot fulfill people's wishes and are discarded because they do not possess "magical power".
The creation of "Item God" regards the waste originally at the bottom as a respected god, as a funny inversion, through the retrospect of history and the change of "position", combined with the combination of overwhelming promotional advertisements and traditional religion, form a mockery of capital and changing the timeliness of items from ideological stimulation.
