These are some of my favorite pieces of the Leap Year exhibition by the Korean artist, Haegue Yang.
This year is the 80th anniversary of Korea's Liberation Day (August 15) and it is important to remind ourselves the importance of intercultural exchange and discovering each other's differences, but also what we have in common. I really like traditional craftsmanship and the colorful straw sculptures, The Randing Intermediates - Underbelly Alienage Duo (2020), were made by collaborating with craftmen from the Philipines. People from different countries worked together to make something beautiful.
While I was filming, a group of high schoolers on a museum tour walked by me and on different occasions, someone of the group yelled at me that I was not allowed to take pictures. I didn't say anything, because I was really focussed on filming and since I was bullied a lot in my youth, my mind blocks these kinds of things and I only remember it the next day, when it doesn't hurt as much anymore. I heard the tour guide clearly and loudly tell them that I was allowed to take pictures several times and I am really thankful that she stood up for me. I honestly don't think that the kids were intentionally trying to hurt me. Maybe, they have never met and/or talked with a Chinese person before. Instead of walking up to me and telling me that I was not allowed to take pictures, it is less scary to stand at a safe distance and yell at me and immediately walk away. This made me realise that to this day, it is still necessary for people with different backgrounds to open up communication and mingle. This way, we will realise that we are all the same ordinary human beings and not scary strangers. Let there never be a war and finally, what all pageant participants want, world peace.
