#7 - Xu Yixin & Kuangyi Xing - Gaze27 Jan10 min

<p>In this episode of Canvas Talks, recorded at Studio Pandora in TivoliVredenburg, we meet Xu Yixin &amp; Kuangyi Xing. In Gaze, the creators explore their bodies&#39; resistance to the daily gaze, from the perspective of a person of color living in the West. </p><p>Based on traumatic experiences with sexual harassment in the workplace, their work doesn&#39;t offer an answer to this everyday problem, but rather evokes an intangible feeling of itching and discomfort—the same discomfort you experience when you&#39;re stared at. It serves as bodily resistance to the gaze of those in positions of power.</p><p>CANVAS is het hypnotiserende videokunstwerk van 150m2 op de zesde verdieping in TivoliVredenburg. CANVAS is elke vrijdag gratis te bezoeken in Park 6 in TivoliVredenburg. Met dank aan: Bud en Mr. Beam.</p><p>Meer weten over CANVAS?
