My work and process currently revolves around personal contemplations on queerness, identification, diaspora, memories, Hong Kong, impulsivity, desperation, desires and anti-perfectionism.
They often take the modes of moving images, sounds and publications.
Outside of my practice, I like sleeping under the sun and swimming in the ocean.

Stillness is No Man’s Land
The work was inspired by my personal desire to create a still life in video, for the nostalgic migrants to be able to recollect pieces of home in a more dimensional, durational form. The queer narrative confronts the ever fluid state of the urban - As with Hong Kong, since its history is elusive, and the future of governance is unprecedented, one is left to its own device to hold stubbornly onto its present, as hard as it could. The video is the result of this tightly wound clench. “Stillness is No Man’s Land” posits the conception of staying still as a geographical and affective anchoring, tirelessly clamped against a place, a time, an emotion and an identity that is in essence ever transient.
