My concern as an artist centers on the integration of computer graphics with the silkscreen printmaking process. The involvement of computer technology symbolizes the mechanical and rational thought processes of the human mind. Discipline and order, strongly emphasized by my Chinese heritage, are brought about during the early stages of the art­work and are continued throughout the entire process. I translate the computer prints into a finished piece of artwork with the use of traditional silkscreen media. Each of the works are made up of frag­ments which go together to create a larg­er whole. These works are rearranged on different days to exploit the multiple vari­ations possible within the limits I have established.
