Water Erosion I

The art of Han Sai Por has always been centered on nature and natural forms. Flow Through The Land and Water Erosion are part of a body of work created by Han during an artist residency with the Singapore Tyler Print Institute. In line with her minimalist sculptures, these paper-based works retain an economy and poetry of form that suggest and capture a multitude of elemental energies.With Water Erosion, the paper print takes on a sculptural quality as its centre is hollowed out into a trough filled with pellets resembling seeds, or stones. The curves that wrap around these pellets are evocative of multiple forms with generative or life-giving properties: a riverbed, the inner cavity of a seeded fruit, or a womb.
