Inspired by my studio based residency in Hong Kong during Lunar New Year, located in a historic military site famous for its war-time ghost stories.
Fortune Teller Is Not Here responds to Hong Kong's traditional cultural belief and reverence for the afterlife and supernaturals, which tools and objects are invented to expel bad spirits and poor fortune.

As such, all traditional god status in the work are 3D-printed and digitally stretched to best suit its arrangement in space. In a traditional world of distortion, what would be humans' future fortune to tell?
