Rescue Mission No.1

‘Rescue Mission No.1” was the first work I made in London, it reflect my very beginning introspection about myself and “Taiwan” since I moved in UK, it also inspaired me to awared of the issues such “Other”, “cultural identity crisis”, “post-colonization” which can been offtently seen within my practices afterward. I put the bonsai tree on top of studio partition in first floor (most margin and high corner which noone can reach). As a result of the distance between the audience and the bonsai, the audience cannot see the bonsai clearly, they have to go to balcony and use the binoculars to observe it. Finally if audiences observe carefully they will see there is a tiny note what is written “I am fine, thank you”

Key words: Gaze, Distance, Position, Other, Taiwan,
