From 5th June to 25th June 2021, I’ve created a participatory performance from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. every day at Cheng Ming Building (CUHK). In 17 days, I’ve interacted 97 times with 138 participants, including family, friends, university schoolmates, secondary classmates, my art teacher, strangers, and random visitors of the MFA Year 1 annual exhibition. All movements take place in a sand pool.
I always began with the invitation below.
“Would you like to play a game with me? Here’s what we are going to do.” “The method is, please take out your hand, and stay still. Then, I will find the negative space around you, just like drawing an invisible line along your body. I’ll stop when I find a comfortable place. And then, it's your turn. The only thing is to try not to touch each other. The whole movement will take place in the sand pool. ”
