Inspired by Yasi's alienated descriptions of a domestic room in Paper Cut-outs, Vicki Wong and I conceptualised a creative experiment on displacement and trespass. We wrote and exchanged a passage about our own room, and created an artwork based on each other's texts. By shifting space and medium, we reached for the foreign lands in Yasi's poetic language, at once imagining and projecting ourselves onto a new environment.

I created a collage out of printed matter, origami and a film ticket stub.
