Lulu NGIE delights in studying the human psyche expressed through a person’s body language: how we stand, sit, lie, and move, however subtly, reveals what we think and feel. When experiencing uncomfortable emotions such as acute embarrassment, anxiety, or fear, we often try to protect ourselves by seeking distractions or rationalising our feelings. Sometimes we try to laugh it off. These and other coping mechanisms are almost instinctive. Just as the physical body can heal itself after suffering from an injury, the mind, too, has the ability to recover its equanimity after a trauma. The desire to protect ourselves is strong in all living beings who seek self-preservation. Through works following a Chinese painting tradition called Yi-bi, done mostly in ink on paper, Ngie shares her fascination in this often unnoticed but powerful part of our mental world.

倪鷺露欣喜閲讀人類心靈透過肢體語言的表達：我們怎麼站立、坐下、躺着、移動，即使微妙，也透露我們的想法和感覺。當經歷不安情感，例如極度尷尬、緊張、或害怕的時候，我們經常嘗試保護自己，分散注意或將感覺合理化。有時我們會一笑了之。這些對應機制和其他，幾乎發自本能。和身體受傷後能自我痊愈一樣，人的心神也有能力從創傷回復平靜。追求自我保存的所有生物，都有強烈保衛自己的渴望。倪氏作品以水墨為主，運用「意筆」傳統，分享她對精神世界強力卻不被注視的部分之着迷。
