I am making, thinking, working and living on stolen Cammeraygal and Gadigal lands of the Eora nation as an uninvited guest. I would like to acknowledge and pay my respects to the elders past, present and emerging. Sovereignty was never ceded.

我出來了

Out-Coming 

2020

Facemask performance, 6 minutes 44 second, single-channel video

exhibited as part of my brain but not my brain, Kudos Gallery, July 2020


What do we find when we clean under our skins? I find that I keep forgetting where home is. Where has the once fluent Cantonese flowing through my body gone? I scrub and nourish my face with care in an attempt to connect with my mother, my mother tongue, my motherland. I take off a skin as I examine what I am losing, what I want to discard and what I have already lost without realising. Come clean your faces with me.
