下飛機後回家的路上，心裡想的第一句是紐約人好多啊。

回到家硬是撐著身體把行李整理好，洗好澡後在凌晨三點左右入睡。
醒來大概是十二小時後，接近下午四點。

快速打理一下自己，趕去了曼哈頓展有我作品的學校。
休息已久的社交模式再度開啟，但好開心能認識到更多厲害的藝術家。

後來才知道其中一位一起參展的藝術家和我是同一個藝術學院畢業的。

Julia Hsia 茱莉的表演藝術實踐記事

我的 YouTube 頻道開通啦！

Performance artist: Hsiao-Chu (Julia) Hsia
"From Urban Reverence to Urban Divergence" Group Show, curated by Taiwanese American Arts Council
Location: IW Gallery, Pfizer Building, Brooklyn, NY
Jun 10, 2022

Through this interactive performance, Hsiao-Chu Hsia aims to raise awareness of environmental issues by visualizing the relationship between human beings and nature. We make decisions day by day based on our preferences, needs, and expectations. These behaviors and actions impact the environment directly and indirectly, consciously and unconsciously from small to big scale. A lot of time, we might not be able to recognize what we will bring to results. Hsia would like to invite audiences to join a laboratory setting to do “experiments” together. The three tasks in the piece serve as metaphors for three subtopics under environmental issues. 
 
The first task, melting ice cubes that were made with matcha powder with a hairdryer, represents the issue of sea level rise and ice glaciers melting. The second task, decorating and shaping dried plants with watery coffee, implies over-urbanization and humans’ attitudes toward nature. The last one, skewering styrofoam balls that were soaked in beet juice on sticks, points out specific ways of animal consumption. At the end of the performance, audiences will see how they collectively create three paintings with the paper underneath, standing for ecological footprints that we make through living.
 
This is a piece reminding people how human behaviors are closely connected to the planet and can easily impact and change the environment from every angle. Hsia wants to motivate people to rethink and share thoughts about how we live, then potentially make changes from then.

Environmental Experiment . Hsiao-Chu (Julia) Hsia . June 10 2022

Performance Artist: Hsiao-Chu (Julia) Hsia
Video Director: Chen-Yi Wu
Location: CultureLab LIC, Queens, NY
May 16, 2021

This interactive performance was created during the pandemic, to visualize one’s relationships with others. The balls that were used in this piece represent memories and experiences with family, friends, and loved ones to interpret how people are connected every day and every moment even though physical contact was not allowed at that time. People are still mentally tied together.

Audiences were invited to join the performance to interact with the artist and play with the balls throughout the process. Sentences related to a piece of memory or experience were written on them. These balls serve as cues that remind people of their past memories with others and aim to be touched, read, and taken away by the audience. For instance, one might get a ball that has the sentence “Last time you hug your mom” on it. Hsia expects this performance provides participants with a safe space for people to share their common experiences and memories with each other.

The idea is based on Hsia’s self-identity as a part of the “pre-immigrant” group and the BIPOC group during the unstable time. Hsia was once stuck between her hometown, Taiwan, and the U.S., swinging between the option of staying in the foreign country without permanent residence and going back to her hometown with social pressures against people who travel under the serious spread of the virus. And one of the things that helped her overcome these invisible challenges is the support from the people around her. She wants people to remember our intimacy with others always exists beyond the distance.
