The Stories from the Body #1 is the first of a performance series which is an ongoing life work. The artist retraces lineages that have been disrupted, as a result of migration, from the South Fujian Province of China to Java, Singapore and Malaysia. Coming from the premise that all of human living is performed, Ho activates a process of uncovering, reclaiming and reimagining through her body and its voice; an expression of how an ancestral template is embedded within her physiological being.
