Can you see me yet?

​

 

2014 - Winner - Hong Kong Human Rights Arts Prize 

​

The pressing social issues related to Domestic Helpers in Hong Kong and the pervasive culture of abuse runs deep, seemingly with visibility or lack of it at the core. Would luxury clothing humanise the helper so that she may become visible to the employer or will they only ever be another reference to social status and power within this complicated domestic framework.

These pieces reference a type of conceptual proximity present in commercial shoots and fashion advertising, a dominant language in contemporary visual culture.
