Fragments: A body’s reckoning with its own bloodline
This is a corporeal archaeology—unearthing what lineages bury in muscle and bone
Premise. When tradition is inherited through silence, the body becomes both archive and battleground.
This work excavates the fractures of a diasporic identity (Chinese-Singaporean, Krump practitioner) through the destruction and reordering of cultural symbols.
CHAPTER 1: Hers and Mine
- Dualities, inherited silence
- Explores tension between self and ancestors,
CHAPTER 2: Fragments
- Cracks before the storM
- Shattered memories, broken rituals, unstable ground before rupture.
CHAPTER 3: Blood / 血
- Eruption from the wreckage
- A visceral outpouring
- the rawness of body, lineage, and survival.
CHAPTER 4: 两仪 (Two Powers)
- Combining both worlds
- Ethnic and Krump
- Yet to be developed
CHAPTER 5: Dawn
- Not healing, but clarity
- The final state: not resolution, but illumination - fragments reordered, a repaired cup, clarity after rupture.
- Yet to Develop
