Water Tank Talk Series 水箱访谈
Performance series since 2021
The Water Tank talk series is a practice playing with the power structure, personal space versus public, and the information and knowledge structure.
In the performance, there are usually two participants squeezing in a heavy-duty plastic water tank. The tank will then be placed on a handcart and relocated to a public space, usually the city centre. There are curious people, engaging passers-by who randomly push handcarts around.
The water tank itself formed a semi-bubble that partly isolates two participants from outside reality that will be constantly squeezed by random incidents from the outside public, forming a vivid, time-based floating living statement that is against the mess planned narrative that is filled in our world.
