confronting diasporic (un)memory / awash in benevolence

by Gabriel Yuan

May 25

A collage made up of several photos, varying in size, with torn edges. On the left two-thirds of the collage, small black-and-white strips of a house and a mountain border a large film still from Benevolence, depicting Tam Kung’s shrine in saturated dark red and gold. In the upper right corner is a photo of Tam Kung in paler red tones. Beneath is a torn map of downtown Victoria with a handwritten “X” marking where the Tam Kung Temple is located.

be mad break glass have fun

by Yvette Sin

May 7

A collaged image against a white background features an illustrated head with enlarged pupils drawn in dark purple with pink shading, pasted onto a muscular torso in a blue tank top. The figure has their right arm up, bringing their fist over their left shoulder. The fist is holding sand trickling down. From behind the head sprouts a large bouquet of yellow sunflowers and orange and purple wildflowers, cut from a red background. A text graphic underneath reads: “be mad break glass have fun”.
