The Improvement Area

作品賞析

LIN Yu-Ting is skilled in using the soft and moldable nature of butter clay, transforming cakes that resemble familiar buildings. Improvement Area features a typical Taiwanese apartment with iron-grated windows and corrugated roof to form a construction element of the Tiramisu cake. The cross section of the cake was deliberately exhibited in order to showcase the wall surfaces and flooring of the house that may be exposed during urban replanning. LIN Yu-Ting created these cakes in order to build connections between our senses of sight and taste, recreating the sweet coziness provided by our homes that also serve as a documented record of urban changes and evolution, providing viewers with a moment that can be reminisced repeatedly.
