In an ongoing negotiation and reconciliation with the politics of identity and location, my art practice has been foregrounded on the everyday and the seemingly unremarkable as subject matter, material, and process. Interests lie in contesting notions of authenticities and loyalties, and how conditions of in-between-ness may be embodied in particular subjectivities.
I have drawn on ideas surrounding memory and experience, embodiment and consumption, and labour and loss, navigating what it means to be located within the triple bind, hyphenated existence and imaginary homeland of Chinese-Canadian-ness.
Ongoing interests also lie in documenting the ways in which people take up, and perform in, public space through an archive of photographic images (as inspired by The Invisible Flâneuse).
