My glass works from “The Suitcase Is A Little Bit Rotten” and the two-channel video “The Mountain That Hid” are in the group exhibition “Nomadic”, curated by Dr. Vennes Cheng, at the The Jim Thompson Art Center in Bangkok. It opened on 21 March and is on till 2 June 2024.
In these lovely installation views sent by the venue, my work is framed by the anchoring installation of 133 handmade passports by Tintin Wulia.
The selected artworks by participating artists from Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong form a constellation that investigates and highlights the histories of human displacement in Asia, particularly in the eastern and southeastern regions. This exhibition also seeks to delineate the connections and relationships between various parts of the region and proposes a plural lens to discern the multiculturalism of Asia, emphasising that community and identity are social articulations of differences. It ultimately aims to mediate discussions surrounding the current circumstances of Southeast Asia and Hong Kong and to render imaginary one another’s reference points in the region.
