The Buddhist Bug Project Travels Through Cambodia
The 30-meter long personality corkscrews through the traditional cityscape, intertwining amongst the locals and their habitats, resulting in humorous and dreamlike scenarios. ‘meters and meters of textile act as skin, as a way for the surface of my body to extend into public spaces, and as a metaphoric device for stories to spread across an expanse.’,
Tthe artist says ‘for me, performance and storytelling become ways of bridging the interior and exterior space of self as well as initiate critical dialogues between communities and institutions.‘ the buddhist bug project is currently being shown for art stage singapore.
