Title: We Are Dancing
Year: 2012
Medium:  collaboration | digital prints
Dimension: 20 x 12½ in each, ten in total
Venue: tamtamART, Berlin, Germany

We Are Dancing explores how body imagery is transferred, edited and represented through digital formats such as videos and photographs. Collaborating with identical twins Hsiao-Wei Hsieh and Hsiao-Ting Hsieh, I create works that mimic duplication and cast doubt on the viewer’s observations. Through documentation of the Hsieh sisters’ performance titled 1949, I retrieve their individuality by means of digital media. I rearrange and edit selected photographs to create parallel and juxtaposed relationships between the two individuals in virtual space as well as in real life.

This project is supported by the National Culture and Arts Foundation (NCAF), Taiwan.
