'To be or not to be Chinese - or rather, to identify myself as such - is a question of political articulation, not a self - evident, natural matter.'(Ien Ang)

Canvas International Art invited Ni Haifeng, Tiong Ang and Wang Jianwei to develop a project for its exhibition space in Amstelveen. Between the Light and the Dark presents research and process based, artistic experimentation on the extended theme of Chineseness. slicing the topic into artistic, cultural, social, ethnic, historical, political, economical and spiritual aspects.

Tiong Ang - Woman drinking medicine


The project aims to dislocate prefixed ideas on Chineseness, and investigate, transform and mediate different viewpoints and perspectives on Chineseness in general and present in particular the personal experience, opinions and experiments of these three distinguished artists. The presentations are to be regarded as temporary settings for an internal dialogue between these artists about their varying degrees of Chineseness.
