Paper is the primary material in Song’s work, and she views it as more than just a medium—it becomes an organism that embodies the processes of growth, decay, and evolution. Her work extends into the realms of biotechnology and genetic manipulation, driven by a curiosity about the mutations and new life forms that could emerge from such scientific advancements. The transformed forms in her pieces serve as metaphors for the progress of life sciences that challenge the natural order, while also addressing the extinction and mutations caused by environmental destruction. Through these visual representations, Song raises profound questions about the essence and identity of life, creating new life forms that transcend species boundaries.
