Details:
Yung will be speaking about his exhibit 100 Flowers, which is a video installation and single-channel video that focuses on identity (both in terms of sexuality and race and otherness), desire and fantasy.
Yung was born in Edmonton in 1971 to a Chinese immigrant family. He has lived in Vancouver, Hong Kong, Berlin, and Hamburg and is currently based in Cologne. As a writer, performer and video artist, he has explored issues of race and identity from a queer Chinese-Canadian perspective. For several years, he was an active member of Video In Studios, an artist-run centre for video and media art in Vancouver. As a curator, educator and collaborator, he has been committed to supporting emerging and independent artists in Canada, the U.S. and Germany. Since his first video release in 1994, he has travelled extensively to screen his work at film festivals around the world, including solo exhibitions at Vancouver Out on Screen Festival (2001), Seoul Queer Film & Video Festival (2000) and Toronto Reel Asian Film Festival (1999).
In partnership with Latitude 53.
