Han Qian’s work as well as reflecting on individual perception and identity memory through multiple times and the threads of history. Attempting to present her creative projects as a constant journey between the past and the present, searching for the possibility of symbiosis and dialogues with the external world and inner experience. The artist often works with her video through photographs, documents as well as writing, the act of collecting and textual writing is a recurring metaphor in her creative practice, and the search for different perceptions of source time always pulls in her writing. The artist employs various mediums such as video, installation, performance, and text.

韓倩的創作以不同的時空和歷史線索,展開對個體知覺和身分記憶的思考。 她試圖將創作作為不斷往返過去與現在的旅程,尋找外部世界和內在經驗共生的可能和對話。藝術家常常通過照片、文獻以及寫作進行影像創作,收集的行為和文本寫作是她創作實踐中反覆出現的修辭,對來源不同時間感知的探尋始終牽引她的書寫。她的創作實踐以錄影、裝置、行為、版畫與寫作為媒介。目前她的工作圍繞著家庭三代的歷史展開,探討與此纏繞的自然資源與政治話語,以及個體命運在其中的遭遇。
