I was interested to observe the meaning of urban movement, migration and being homeless. Clothes have the practical function but also represent the personality and become the symbol of status. I was interested to all the female workers whose life devoted to become a maid in foreign country like Taiwan. This is a social issue in my country, and in fact a very sad issue.
This performance was the beginning of my direct perception of a place and a site specific oriented.Materials: ca. 100 pieces of clothes, ropes, knife
Duration: 3 hours
Performed at Artrend- performance art meeting, Taipei, Taiwan, 2009
