Tzuhan Lin 林子涵 (b. 1998) is from Taiwan, now based in London. She recently graduated from Royal College of Art with a MA in Sculpture and previously completed her BA in Painting at Edinburgh College of Art. Her recent exhibition includes The Very Hours Pass Unnoticed with Warbling in London.

Her work consists of physical and digital mediums that conveying the interaction between weight and tension. Her practice explores metaphors for experience, linear time and space in relation to modern architecture and its ideology.


The current age as a rapid transformation stuffed with happy yet unpleasant debris, it is contrary to an ideal decentralised world of freedom. The world of relentless eager for power and control inflicts tensions and conflicts. In this context, my works intend to evoke our collective dependence on time by challenging dualistic thinking and explores the interdependence between opposites.

Intrigued by our indefinite existence, I value the geological aspect of our simultaneous presence on this rotating planet. We are living in a liminal transition while seeking a sense of groundedness. Gravity connects us to the Earth, and our weight anchors our presence within space. Reflecting on what we depend on to experience, my practice has evolved from a focus on quantitative clock time to an exploration of non-linear space, alongside a deconstruction of habitual frameworks. The concept of clock time is compared to brutalism due to its prioritisation of functionality and social purpose. These invention and movement have fueled the development of society by regulating individuals’ livings, habits and perceptions. However, in the face of the inevitable existence of norms, it is difficult to avoid the emergence of neglect and inequality.

Therefore, I appreciate the essence of time; it possesses a quality of emptiness, embracing durations and events without losing its pristine purity. This unreachable space is envisioned as an ultimate utopia, where regulation is eliminated, yet individuality maintain open and non-hierarchical in harmony.
