Working...

2006-03-30T09:33:00.000-08:00

These past two weeks have been hectic.... Something tells me that I should have considered perhaps hiring someone to do the job for me hahahahaah., It's a LOT of work putting together those jars!! Thank goodness the weather's been really nice to me... Got a couple of cuts from the metal filings, but other than that - the ceder mulch smells quite refreshing!

I decided last night to put together a small flyer that I distributed to everyone who contributed to my project... (look to the left). I probabaly need to bring everything there on Monday.... Which reminds me that I do need to get the lawn table from Mel..... And a light, because there is no light source in that room- how terrific. Anyway, I think with all considerations I made the best out of a situation, and hopefully it will turn out good.

Why the five elements

2006-02-22T21:26:00.000-08:00

There are several parts to this project that are of interest. I've decided to use the five elements to describe each response. The five elements are: water, wood, fire, earth and metal. Together they are the building blocks of life.

Water --> CBC--> Believes that he/she is half Chinese; half Canadian (black/blue)
[this element reflects adventure and exploration. It is relaxing and calming. Black is not a color- it is a lack or absence of color. However, when melted with another element it signifies a fusion of power.]

Fire --> Canadian (red)
[this element is signified by the color red, which denotes, happiness, prosperity. It is the color like fire that produces heat and warmth. When combined with other elements; it adds to it by producing comfort."

Earth --> Chinese (yellow)
[this element represents a connection to the roots. Yellow is the national color of old China, sacred to the emperor and assumed only by him and his sons or the lineal descendants of his family. This element represents balance and when combined with other elements provides a sense of groundedness and connection to the roots.]
--------------------------------
Wood --> Writes/Comprehends Chinese (blue)
[This element is the shelter element. Blue is a color that signifies tranquility; reflects love; heals and relaxes.When combined with other elements this element will overpower by providing a homey feeling of comfort.]

Metal --> Does not comprehend/write Chinese (White)
[Metal helps hold water and is created by the Earth. White signifies purity and honesty. When combined with other elements; metal creates balance and harmony.]

Each person's response, would then be a combination of one from each of the two categories above. Their responses are printed on the side of the bottles, and the colors are mixed from the two elements.

Essence of Chicken

2006-02-10T21:14:00.000-08:00

Brand's Essence of Chicken - Traditionally, Chinese families double-boil (pounded) whole chicken to obtain the essence of chicken from its meat and bone marrows. The essence of chicken is consumed for good health and energy. This traditional formula has been reproduced by Brand's and it is commonly consumed by ASEANs during school exams, hectic and stressful periods. Research at King's College, London has scientifically proven that it increases metabolic rate. It contains no stimulants, fat, cholesterol, artificial coloring, flavorings or preservative. I used to drink this when I had to burn mid-night oil to prepare for my exams as a student or nowadays, when I go on business and/or hectic trips. This essence may be taken straight from the bottle, chilled, warmed or with warm water added. The entire contents of this bottle should be consumed at one time. Consume within 24 hours after opening.
Health tonics in ASEAN are synonymous with multi-vitamins, mineral or alternative supplements for maintenance of good health. However, these tonics are mostly natural and nutritious foods rather than processed pure extracts from foods or in synthetic form.
Traditionally, tonics were prepared at home by loving wives, mothers, or grandmothers. Wealthy families including the Chinese emperors consumed these tonics regularly such as weekly or monthly or even daily. Bird's nest or herbal mixes have to be bought from the local herbal stores, cleaned and washed, and then cooked (usually double-boiled) for hours before they are served. Double-boiling is a traditional method of cooking food away from direct heat. This cooking method is similar to using a Bain-Marie in a Western kitchen where the food is cooked by the surrounding "sea" of water instead of direct heat.
Modern working mothers often could not find time to cook these nutritious tonics for their children. Instead, the popular traditional formulas are now produced using modern food technology to retain the natural goodness and are made easy to cook or ready for consumption.
Here are some of the tonics I consume myself and have made them available here.

So far I've gotten around 32 responses (that's quite a bit considering I only had it for a few days). Some of the answers were pretty funny, but some people were really serious, and the response that I'm getting from this project is surprising to me....

Sample Response:
1. What is one thing you had to do when you were growing up that no other kid on the block had to do? Being the youngest in the family, I was always nourished and protected by my family. Because of this, this may be one of the main reasons to my shyness. I remember way back when it was time for me to attend kindergarden. I had to open myself up from the 4 wall home barrier and attend school where asians was a minority. It was fearful at first, because not only did I have to go to school with no familar faces, but I was also stuck taking a school bus myself for the first time. The first few times were intimidating and scary, but after I met friends and began picking up the language, I managed to overcome my fear and also became best friends with some of the kids around my block. 2. Name a reason why you're proud to be CBC. I am proud to be a CBC because I love living in Canada. Canada is a multicultural place full of cultural diversity. I feel honoured to be part of it. 3. Do you consider yourself Chinese or Canadian? Why? I consider myself Canadian because over 2/3rds of my life, I've been living in Canada. I drink the water, breath the air and have set foot on the foundations there. Hong Kong is my root, but Canada is the place I call " home sweet home."4. Do you speak or write Chinese? I can speak Cantonese, but I can't really read or write it.

----------------------
As for my art project I'm not really sure what it is that I want to do for SURE yet, but I have some ideas. The materials that I will use to base the responses upon will have to be one that is respectable, unique to Chinese Canadians, not discriminative, self-explanatory and easy to use. It needs to reflect the responses that I receive, and most of them have funny responses about having to take leftovers from dinner for lunch when they were in elementary school and high school. It wasn't the greatest experience since nobody likes to smell Chinese food, and hence even though we know that we physically look different we now are being looked as an outsider even from the food that we eat.

I'll show you guys what I mean when I do it-
I'm also thinking about doing something with Chinese School paper (funny-looking thin pieces of paper with checker boxes on them).

Creating Multiples

2006-02-05T19:22:00.000-08:00

After sketchbooking for the entire evening trying to find out what exactly to do for this project- I've decided to explore the CBC culture. I find it oh so fascinating how we (CBC = Chinese Born Canadians) want so much not to be Chinese, but despite that our parents drill us so that we NEVER forget that we're Chinese. It's strange. It's like this whole culture of strangeness. Talking on behalf of my mother when I call up Rogers for example to help her with her phone bills, or calling up VISA and the typical, "can you speak to my daugher please, I no English."- is so common. Yet as strange as that is to most people (well at least to those whose parents could speak for themselves) we CBCs find that natural (forced-natural- doesn't matter). Then there's always this strange tone when I do get on the phone and talk for my mother, "sorry, my mom doens't speak English, can I talk on her behalf?"- oh the apolgies and then of course the rep on the line feels complete empathy and praises that your mother can speak English. Oh of course there is the "bring-your-Chinese-food-to-school" plan... that never ends up in complete embarassment. I remember opening up my tupperware and thinking to myself, "please, please be a sandwich- PLEASE." and it ends up being rice with some cut up fish lying on top of the rice and some soya sauce with some leaks on the side. I could hear people giggling around me already... "that smells Wynne- !!!" I throw my tupperware back into my backpack.... Oh, and of course when everyone's going out to McDonald's on Saturday morning, where do we get to go? CHINESE SCHOOL!!! For nine years of my life I was forced to attend Chinese school every Saturday morning from 9am - 12pm. It was like a never ending ritual that you prayed and hoped that it would end the following year- and that sleeping in on the weekends would be possible... and perhaps finally being able to go to a slumber party without having to leave in the morning.

Just a little background of being CBC- there are a TON of examples though, and of which I find them so fascinating because it shapes us- the basis of who we are. Although we are physically and genetically Chinese- we are not fully Chinese. In part, we are white on the inside, and we try very hard to be that way- some may dispute that and say that they're proud to be Asian, but the reality is that the way we were brough up we were always torn between the two worlds, and the truth is that really- we belong to our own worlds. The CBC, twinkie... the world of the "in-betweens", and instead of trying to be a part of another group, which is what we are constantly doing, why not be who we are- Canadian Born Chinese.

The question now remains is who are we? We are always in-between of different groups. We could be whatever you want us to be. We are a fusion of different cultures, but by doing so we have created our own customs, beliefs and rituals. Although they may not be evident, CBCs know what they are, but we never really talk about them in conversations, we just know what they are.

I would like to bring those expriences, rituals, beliefs to the surface and create multiples. For final piece will be a combination of responses and photographs from 100 CBCs. Specific questions will be asked, and they will be asked to return the information to me via email/regular mail. The result will be a wall full of documents, written and printed to keep as a record of who we are, and that we are something, something different, and something unique from other things even though we may have always seemed to be up in the air.

The questions that will be asked are very specific.
1. What physical feature do you possess that other CBCs also possess?
(this question is important because Chinese people could immediately distinguish if you are born in Canada or born in Hong Kong/China)

2. What's one thing that you do as a CBC that you find that nobody else other than CBC's need to do?

3. Name a reason why you're proud to be CBC.

I plan to do a test for this with some of my friends, and see what kind of responses I get... And I know that retrieving 100 responses isn't easy, but I want to do more, if I could do more than 100 I would. The more the better.

This is public, participatory and community art. I want it to reflect who we are and be proud of it, even if it means that sometimes we're caught up in the middle a little bit.

Maybe rambling on about things will exercise the mind.... so that inspiration will spit out - please do.

Language has played a huge part in my life. It has both helped me succeed and fail- in different ways. Succeed in a sense that it helped me cope with different groups of people, and feel like I belong in that group, whether it was a group of all Chinese people, or all Caucasian people, or all African American people... doesn't matter. Language made me feel like I was a part of "them". But who am I?.... I'm Wynne... I know that I'm Chinese, but apparently I'm not fully Chinese because I'm from here... But I'm not Caucasian either...

I'm torn between these two worlds, and longing to belong somewhere to someone... to call myself and be proud to call myself "something".

Here we go again.

2006-02-05T01:24:00.000-08:00

I think that I finally got it- I finally understand what I want to understand. Sounds demented, but yes, I think I finally got it.

As I went back to my drawing board this entire week.... I realized that ultimately what I'm trying to say is very simple. I want to directly comment on the power of language, with respect to it's powers of allowing people certain opportunities over others.

I know that nothing is by accident, as Tanya says.... subconciously we chose to do certain things. I know that I chose to do this project about language because it meant something to me. During this whole week I continuously went braindead for ideas about this project and ripping my hair out because I am struggling to find out what the heck is it that I want to comment about language.

so what the heck am i talking about//

2006-02-01T21:06:00.000-08:00

(transcribed from sketchbook)
Ultimately I what I would like to challenge the power of language and how that serves to shape and create identities. How language serves as a mechanism to improve a person's chances of success or failure. Being Chinese Canadian and an immigrant, I have a mixture of identities that I live by everyday of my life. Although I am Chinese, never did I feel discrimination, and most of it has to do with the fact that I can speak Cantonese, Mandarin, English and French fluently (flawless if I ever wanted to). Funny enough I had the chance to work in a call center for four years, and over the years I've had people say racist comments about Chinese people to my face, but of course it's so ironic because I'm Chinese, but just without an accent. With that being said, there are advantages, because I know for a fact that I get treated better over the phone because I don't have an accent, and I know that because other Asian people who work with me have been told that they dont' want to be spoken to because they, "can't speak English." Then I hear from my friends that they got declined for jobs because they speak English with an accent. The point here is that they speak with an ACCENT- it's not that they don't understand English, they are more than capable of performing that job accordingly than any other.

to be continued...

Revised Tentative Proposal

2006-01-24T16:19:00.000-08:00

Today's discussion was very helpful, brief, but it got me thinking about different issues concerning racial discrimination/stereotypes. In a nutshell I think what I'm trying to imply and to excentuate is the way people treat each other, and how powerful language serves both as a purpose for communication and at the same time as a tool for discrimination. I think that language personally having been brought up in a French emmersion elementary school, and growing up with all caucasian people (all means ALL- I was the only Asian person in the school for eight years), has caused me to believe that I am different, but as long as I spoke without an accent, I could somewhat blend in with the rest of the crowd. Nevertheless I was still treated as an outcast in elementary school, and I've since had better days. Growing up through high school was much better, because I was no longer a minority, but became a majority since immigration opened their doors to a TON of Chinese people in the 90's. Language also served as a purpose for me, because being able to speak Chinese I was assimilated with the new Chinese people, because most of them were ESL students who spoke only Cantonese.

I was talking to Wing Man today, and I asked her, "so what do you think about my project?", and she said, "well, Wynne you are different. You grew up here, and we didn't. We're not the same." I was shocked. Never have I felt that I was different from them, well I knew that physically I'm different, but apprarently I am a totally different species to them. I was compelled by this answer and asked the same question to my roommate Mandy, who is a visa student from Hong Kong, and she said, "yeah, you are different. We're not the same, you're a 'ghost-girl' (another word for white-washed in Chinese). You're a CBC- we dress differently, we eat different types of foods and you seem like you have more confident when you speak to people.. We're just not the same." FINE. So I asked her another question, "Do you ever feel like you're discriminated against when you speak to people?", and she said, "no, not really. the 'ghost-guys' (white people) are pretty nice and patient when they speak to me. Actually I get more discriminated from CBCs (Canadian Born Chinese) than from other people." THAT was very interesting. I never knew that people like Mandy were actually intimated when they spoke to me, and even had that thought that I would discriminate against them. STRANGE.

Therefore it's perhaps not certain types of people who are discriminating against each other, but the human race for one reason or another, perhaps out of fear or embarassment of their own culture decide to treat people differently.

From that I want to develop my project in a different and more suitable direction. I would like to develop a universal language system whereby people would interact with each other in that language only. The purpose of this is to see the reactions and emotions of the people interacting with each other whereby everyone is speaking the same language, and perhaps that would place people from different cultures on the same level and physical differences would not be seen of primary importance.

I want to do research on linguistics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistics. I will create a program whereby I will use this program and ask people from different backgrounds to interact with each other. I will document this through video, and present my findings in a gallery setting with video streaming, and at the same time have the program available for viewers to try in the gallery setting.

Instead of intensifying my concept through discrimination; perhaps this approach would be more suitable since it is proposing a solution to the problem.

A more detailed proposal will follow shortly.

GENERALI FOUNDATION, VIENNA

In 1992 just when a series of attacks on refugee camps was forcing a reunited Germany to confront its history anew, Adrian Piper made her first significant appearance in the German-speaking art world, with a solo exhibition at the Kunstverein Munchen. The scandalous implications of the incidents at Hoyerswerda, Rostock, and elsewhere had a disturbing impact on the nation s liberal self-image, despite attempts by the media to minimize the events as acts by individuals. In this context, Piper's images and texts scored a direct hit, powerfully stirring many observers.

Now, ten years later, Piper's most comprehensive European retrospective to date has taken place at Vienna's Generali Foundation during another noteworthy political moment: a period of "normalization" following protests against a far-right party's participation in Austria's government. Unlike Munich, where curators intended Piper's show to be a political act, the Vienna exhibition (curated by the foundation's director, Sabine Breitwieser) is, at first glance, an art-historical repositioning of the African American artist as one of the most important women working today. Yet this exhibition is still political in a sense alluded to in the recorded monologue of a museumgoer looking at a photograph of black South Africans in Piper's 1978 installation Aspects of the Liberal Dilemma. "Here is your main concern," she says. "To understand and recognize the work, to master it and fit it in with art you already know, that is, to come up with an appropriate comment about it at the appropriate time." For within the curren t movement to canonize Conceptual and political art of the '6os and '70s, "mastering the work" first and foremost means historicizing it and subjecting it to a distanced gaze.

This gaze, however, has changed since the '7os; in a world that is driven toward excitement and recreation, many art spaces have changed into mere stage sets. Unprotected by the mellowing effect of historicization, installations like Four Intruders Plus Alarm System, 1980, would be highly disruptive. The unswerving gazes of four backlit portraits of black people are so straightforward as to be disconcerting; the accompanying monologues by fictional viewers may sound, to contemporary ears, as if they are being spoken by those formerly liberal politicians now putting their signatures on the latest anti-immigration laws.

In the arty spaces of today's entertainment culture, social heterogeneity and agitative political art are considered irritating-- disruptions of a safe distance from unexpected events. The art that typically arises in these arenas is perhaps best described, to borrow the title of a 1976 Piper work, as Art for the Art World Surface Pattern, which was, not quite incidentally, positioned near the entrance of the foundation's retrospective. While the freestanding room appears on the outside to be a white cube, its interior is wailpapered with news clippings about political oppression; a recorded voice decries this violation of aesthetic contemplation. Nearly thirty years after its creation, the supposedly historical piece encounters prejudices that are commonplace and rediscovers stereotypes from which the art world has long since considered itself immune.

"I take the art itself, and my impulse to do it, to be generated by causes rather than by reasons," Piper writes in a text for "The Mythic Being I-III," 1974-75. In this series of public interventions the artist appeared--cross-dressing with wigs, sunglasses, and a fake moustache to dissimulate her gender--in live performances and in advertisements placed among the gallery listings of the Village Voice. "Mantras" taken from her notebook appear in speech bubbles inserted in photographic documentation of her performances, appealing against the prejudicial structures of reading images. Piper plays a double game here, using the strategies of '6os Conceptual art to target a blind spot in the movement's criticism of Minimalism: namely, its universalist pretenses, which pretend to disregard gender and color. Against these, Piper presents herself, masked with grotesquely enhanced symbols of gender and culturally inscribed images, making it clear that recourse to any universalist model of the body is fruitless, since bodies are always already culturally interpreted.

Perhaps Piper's greatest contribution to Conceptual art has been her radicality in pointing out the exclusions that result from its abstractions--and doing so by means of Conceptual art itself. Her insistence on filling the abstract space of art with contemporary politics contaminates formalistic fantasies of purity and erects barricades against contemplation.

Piper regularly exhorts her audiences to analyze her works, whether in the dance-class performance Funk Lessons, 1982-84, or in image-text arrangements from the 1992 series "Decide Who You Are." In My Calling (Card) #1, 1987-88, she addresses people directly as "you" and positions them in the "here" and "now," while meeting them with a frontal gaze--a move that Piper calls indexical. This indexing was already present in her Sol LeWitt-influenced "Space-Time-Infinity" pieces and in her sound works of 1968, which examined the opposition between abstract timelessness and the concrete space in which an action is executed and understood.

Since that time, Piper has used grids and typewritten text, juxtaposed newspaper articles with documentary photographs and self-portraits, and placed direct speech alongside referential speech. Even such forceful works as Black Box/White Box, 1992, cohere formally and methodologically with Piper's overall production. The piece pairs the video footage of Rodney King's brutalization by Los Angeles police officers in 1991 with a recording of Marvin Gaye's 1971 song "What's Going On" and a 1992. speech by then president George H.W. Bush about sending troops into LA to quell protests in black communities. Piper places these in two minimalistic boxes, one black and one white. The King tape marked the intrusion of the real in a period defined by the media's celebratory highlighting of the Gulf War. In a present defined by the media omnipresence of the so-called War Against Terror, Piper's installation still stands out like a beacon.

"Adrian Piper Since 1965: Meta-art and Art Criticism" will be on view at the Institut d'Art Contemporain, Villeurbanne, Jan. 15-Apr. 15, 2003; travels to the Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, June-Sept. 2003.

"In addition to working as an artist, Piper is a highly respected philosopher and writer. She was trained in analytic philosophy, and has a particular interest in the work of Immanuel Kant, specifically his notions of the self and his explorations into what enables people to act morally and make aesthetic judgements. Piper's philosophical explorations have had a considerable impact on her artistic production, both in its relationship to rational thought processes and as a means to gain access to larger, metaphysical concerns."
