Untitled (Asian Women) [2015-2016]
Using self-portraits, and method of performance art, the author regards the body of being a Chinese woman as both the subject of the work and the object of the cultural environment to discuss mass media, feminism, science, globalization and political topics. This group of photographs satirizes the images of Asian women from the Western perspective - high school girls, geishas, stereotypical good students, and so on. These characters wear masks made of scotch tape, symbolizing the vagueness within the portrayal of Asian women in Western culture, and the diverse Asian cultures are extremely lack of differential expressions in the Western media.
运用自我肖像以及行为艺术的方法论，作者将自己中国女性的身体既作为作品的主体，又作为文化环境的客体，来讨论大众传媒、女性主义、科学、全球化以及政治性话题。这一组影像讽刺了西方视角中的亚洲女性形象——女学生、艺伎、渴求被白人化的优秀学生等等。几个角色戴上了透明胶带所制的面具，象征着亚洲女性在西方文化中的塑造都是模糊不堪的，而亚洲国家的多样化文化也在西方世界里极度缺乏差异性的表达。
