“many works with/out titles, in-co-hear” at UNCG Women’s and Gender Studies Symposium (27 Feb 2016)

Instigated by Caitlin Spencer, many works with/out titles, in-co-hear was a durational installation-based performance performed with Lalenja Harrington and Whitney Akers, with long-distance contributions by Oliver Thomas. The work included overlapping, co-existing independent artistic research as well as collective coming-together in song.

My contributions included screenings of my film shorts, “blood run,” “colonial mapping,” and “more than| less than,” as well as my new performative experiment, “The Decolonial Fortune-teller.” The Decolonial Fortune-teller, aka Madame May Chang, interacts with audience members one on one. Her fortunes are indigenous critiques of Han Chinese colonization of Taiwan based on Walis Norgan’s poem, “The Chinese Animal Zodiac for Aborigines.”
