SPLIT

In SPLIT, I invited people to reflect on the law of duality in their lives and find the middle ground between opposites:

1. Write a good thing that happened to you in the past week (on the white wall).

2. Write a bad thing that happened to you in the past week (on the black wall).

3. Come and embrace me.

What is unity? We tend to think that unity means we are all together as good people doing good things. And this is the ideal. There is a split in society, and also in individuals. And actual unity is about embracing both light and dark, the good and the bad, in ourselves and in others.

Performance took place during CEC ArtsLink Fellowship program in Houston, short before the upcoming elections in The US.
