House of 9 Dragons

“The House of 9 Dragons: Community, Family, Heritage” grows from an intergenerational collaboration between Love Intersections and the Lim Sai Hor Kow Mock Benevolent Association. With a reciprocal interest in the future of Chinatown and preservation of benevolent associations, this exhibit invites audiences to be in conversation with living oral histories of the Lim (林) clan, whose still-beating heart and spirit flow through the veins of Chinatown. Our aim is to foster a collective vision of Chinatown’s future, rooted in the wisdom of our ancestors and the shared dreams of generations yet to come.

Yellow Peril Series

“Yellow Peril; The Celestial Elements” is a visual art exhibit inspired by the Chinese Five Elemental forces, seized by the urgent tensions between Queer Chinese diasporic identities. A collection of multichannel installations, visual and sculptural activations provoke a cosmic encounter of our living past and present as we ‘race’ towards a healing future. These elemental activations attempt to collapse the linear temporality to dislodge an emotional, spiritual, cosmological, and metaphysical enunciation of our Queer ‘Chineseness’. Rather than focus on the trauma that queer people of colour face, this project is fundamentally an invitation to an exuberant celebration of queerness that is unabashedly Chinese.
