CINDY SALIM
B. 1990 in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia
Lives and studying in Singapore
She is a current Degree graduating student from LaSalle College of The Arts Singapore.Looking through the old photographs, objects and places that are related to her childhood, is like sitting in a time machine that bring her back to the reminiscence moments. Going through this experience makes her aware of the ephemeral quality of time and human existence. For Cindy the longing to preserve the moments, is the desire to always remember what was used to exist. At the same time the realization of the distortion of the remembrance always occur and it become the the failure in preserving.
Her interest in exploring various materials, is one of the objective in her art making process. However, casting object is now became her main method in her current practice. For her the whole process of casting in a way is an act of fabricating or simulating the real objects to give a sense prolonging life.
