Ching-Ya Lin’s works search for various ways to record time. She interprets and amplifies her limited lifetime as a human by visualizing the trace of time. The work「Portrait of a Day」 records the existence and disappearance of time through the trace of sunlight and shadow. The work「Bring you a piece of Sunlight」records the process of the present moment, which constantly becomes the past. 

In addition, she explores the spirituality of time through repetitive labor—insight herself through the repeated states.
