Hwang has been taking time to carefully examine and understand the materials she chose, developing her works through a labor-intensive production process. Her interest in the materials and inquisitive attitude imbues on these works a unique personality, and by throwing away the existing characteristics of the materials, the exceptional forms of her sculptures arise.For example, Harder (2014-16), light aluminum foil is massed together and hammered into a hard lump, and in Heavier (2016), scattered sand is bonded together and forged into a heavy form. In 〈Paper Body, Paper Face〉, Hwang selects ‘paper’ as her material and probes both its characteristics and her own practice with it in her works. Following the organic lines made by a French Curve, an instrument for measuring garments, she folds, cuts, and glues the paper over and over again to create a naturally abstracted form.
