Photographic Installation

By inserting the image of the artist  into a crowd of protestors, it is an act of disagreeing with the current inclinations of the Bersih movement which largely revolves around idolisation and demonization of political entities, instead of solidarity of citizens. By wearing a colour different from the other protestors and raising both hands, these are acts that differentiate the artist from the collective of the movement, thus visually isolating the artist from the ideals represented by the rally.

Part of a group show, titled Missing You Already, which is a collaboration between three artists similarly working on photoshopping themselves into images of protests out of different sentiments, such as nostalgia or dissent.
