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.

Sakarat: Pohon Yang Sunyi

Sakarat: Pohon Yang Sunyi 2025

1

Beneath a dying tree, a man digs a grave, awaiting another arrival. When a silent figure appears, he assumes they've come to bury someone else. But as the truth unfolds, he realises the grave is his own. What follows is not a fight for survival, but a quiet confrontation between fate and free will, between beings that exist beyond human understanding. What begins as a simple encounter unfolds into something far more metaphysical: a conversation between two beings that exist beyond the realm of men. One bound by duty, the other corrupted by desire, both caught in a moment between life and eternity. Set in a desaturated rural landscape, Sakarat: Pohon Yang Sunyi reimagines the moment before death where silence, duty, and rebellion intertwine, blurring the boundaries between the mortal and the divine.
