Description
“Boy bands are this perfect representation of how identity is constructed and consumed within capitalism. Each member is usually hyper-individualized, but really, they can't exist on their own. Together, they form a whole person.”
Drawing on varied histories and styles of performance and storytelling, including Cantonese opera, K-pop, and sitcoms, Sin Wai Kin’s works (@sinforvictory) reveal how the stories we tell ourselves shape our identities and our shared world.
“Storytelling is a tool to construct other perspectives that you can immerse yourself in, and then be able to see the world that we exist in in a different light.”
