About the Artist

Priscilla Pang produces reticulated lanterns using a decorative technique known as the ‘devil’s work’ (恶魔的工作). Pang’s repeated motif is called the connected coin geometric pattern (连钱纹). The pattern visualises the co-existence of a coin and a clover. A coin representing her Chinese roots and a clover referring to the breeze blocks of her built environment. Each converging motifs exist simultaneously and offer cross-cultural communication across her identities.
