About The Artwork
TENDER STORY is composed of four parts: the cake, the Shadow of Turning, the delegated, and the Cyborg-Frankenstein. These four parts separately imply things that are happening and developing in reality like virtual-reality experience, artificial intelligence, information flux, and body modification. They are set in a museum place reviewed under the post-human perspective.
