Borders drifting through body experience​

Wanqiu Zeng

The project was a series of experiments, web publications, forums, workshops, performances, screenings, and exhibitions exploring nation, identity, and the individual. All the works within the six special events organized over four days pounded the didactical concept between Common and Community. Common is held by or applicable to a majority of the people, and Community is a group of people sharing a common interest and relating together socially. All the artists though originating from different backgrounds, shows the from minority and set a conversation from the majority to the minority.

The project Drifting Borders opened just a few days before National Day of China. China is celebrating “Golden Week” as the country marks the 69th anniversary of the establishment of the People's Republic of China on October 1. As domestic tourism surges year-on-year, highways are packed, and tourist attractions overcrowded during the week-long national holiday. All across China, special events are, and tourist businesses are running at full capacity. Hong Kong marked China’s National Day with official celebrations, a surge of visitors from across the border using the new, high-speed rail service, and protests challenging a government crackdown on independence advocacy.
