Icey’s photographs employ cinematic narratives that seamlessly blend fashion, art, and feminism. This series of tableaux explores the intersection of Eastern and Western cultures while delving into themes of loneliness and intimacy, as well as examining power, identity, emotion, and social structures. The essence of power is defined by the relationship between control and obedience, with two models representing different aspects of this dynamic. This form of power resembles a combat game, evoking a sense of loneliness even when enveloped in intimacy. After the audience shares their stories, Icey will engage in a secondary creation to compile a book, making the entire exhibition part of the performance.
