Untitled, 2024 Wall Art
Artist:
Dennis Lin
Originally part of the 等你回來 exhibition, the Untitled, 2024 relief is composed of salvaged paper from Lin’s family paper factory in Taiwan. Part of a larger series, the work is an effort to preserve a culture facing erasure, both intimately and broadly. Lin’s grandfather’s factory, once a bustling operation with over 200 employees, now stands at a crossroads. With most operations shut down and only a few family members maintaining it, the factory faces an uncertain future amid shifting environmental policies and increasing automation.

Working across wood, metal, and salvaged materials, Lin’s work draws on the imagery of sedimentary formations to evoke the passage of time and the emotional weight of place. His pieces — ranging from suspended mobiles to large-scale reliefs are informed by a reverence for natural processes and the histories embedded within reclaimed resources.
