“Bzzz!”

Listen to the humming sounds rattling around, there might be demons whispering in your head.

“Coil” is an emotional amplifier, lurking in the shadows, arouses chaos and self-destruction.
Meanwhile, turn coils upside down, you may hear things in the other way.

For his Taiwanese identity, Yen keeps dealing with the questions of “who he is”. In his pictures, Yen tried responding to objects fond in the street, which he saw as a mirror reflecting his emotions. By confronting emotions, Yen created an excess to his subconscious mind.
