    Seance: Ba oi chau nho ba lam. | 2012

A sculpture/ performance piece from 2012 inspired by Vietnamese ancestor veneration traditions. A paper representation of Sleipnir, the 8 legged horse who could move between realms from Nordic mythology. The horse carried with it a personal letter written to my deceased grandmother and it was burnt together with the letter so that their ashes and smoke would be delivered to the underworld.
