Fragment: 1
2026/8
<Fragment: 1> is a felt frame sculpture that discovers Ting Ru's feelings towards love through elements with opposing connotations:
The making process of felt uses needles to rearrange the fibre of wool, which brings together sharpness and softness.
turning the frame, which is an element that is traditionally supportive, into the core of project.
The idea of a soft, distorting felt frame, with carving patterns, was inspired by how people create standards, which is often carefully made, to support how we understand the abstract concept of what is love.
The <Fragments Series> presents and illustrates what specific individual pieces, following through Ting Ru’s past installation project <ASR>.
