Requiem (Internationale, Goodbye Malaya)
Requiem depicts now-elderly former communists reclaiming memories of their political participation, war, deportation, exile, and socialist dreams, in the form of song. In their youth, they were guerrilla fighters who took on the British in the jungles of Malaya (present-day Malaysia and Singapore) in the anti-colonial war of 1948-1960. Two versions of this work exist, single and double-channel video installation with sound. The double-channel version was shown as part of solo exhibitions in Hong Kong and New York. The single-channel version was shown at the Venice Biennale 2024 as part of The Disobedience Archive curated by Marco Scotini.
