Presentations of Experimental Performances and Installations
The Writers
at Hart Haus, Hong Kong, September 2019
In The Writers, hidden cameras are set up to project live writings on surrounding walls. Covertly studying the live audience/readers, the performers/writers write in overlapping English and Chinese on the paper stations, constructing narratives of the live readers unknowingly reading their own presence. As the installation displaces the performer and the audience, the writer and the reader, surveillance weaves the writer/reader, the writing/reading, the subject/object.

Falling leaves crumbling leaves (collaboration)
at Ming Contemporary Art Museum, Shanghai, October 2019
Installed in a semi-abandoned structure, Falling leaves crumbling leaves plays with the poetics and aesthetics of a modernday absence inspired by the space, while contemplating on the exchange of the local residents/audience and the incoming visitors/artists, how methods of communication evolve through physical and non-physical spaces as well as how information intertwines and reshapes itself in time.
