'CLEANSING THE HOUSE WITH INK' 以墨洗宅 DVD


"... Houses give us shelter; they are even described as our third skin. They become mute witnesses to the domestic life of their inhabitants and shape communal identity. A house is the synonym for 'home' and family history.
My performance 'Cleansing the House with Ink" at Mei Ting (literally, Blossom Dwelling) was an attempt to pay my last respects to the abandoned house before it was demolished."
.
The DVD is a collaboration with Yupin Chung and David Greygoose to create a spoken word performance with Guqin music by Lin Fa.
