Keiying Yip’s practice delves into the shared emotions of sacredness, suffering, and

transcendence within the framework of Buddhism philosophy. Through her understanding of cultural looting and religious revolutions, Yip examines how the meanings of objects are reshaped by external forces. Her practice touches on the fluid nature of identity, power, and personal experiences, revealing how objects once deemed sacred/precious undergo transformation over time, reflect on the authoritative significance these symbols held in different eras, while also acknowledging the enduring essence of their spiritual purposes. Her work reflects on how what was once revered can be remade, misunderstood or worn down, yet still carry a sense of inner life.
