Specialist note

“I feel that my work does not belong to the academic side, nor it is as sweet and lovely as other young artists' works. I have my own set of system, values and philosophy, thus this series of "bad" taste will be revealed in my work from time to time. This is why I have chosen this exhibition title, to differentiate it from the others. I believe that many people do like certain ugly or not-so-pretty things, and being not exactly 'beautiful' does not necessarily mean that they are bad or no good. This is what I refer to as "Bad Taste". ”
