Think carefully, where have you been yesterday?

Think carefully, where have you been yesterday?

Shi Yong’s extensive video project “Think Carefully, Where Were You Yesterday” (2007 – ongoing) deals with the ‘politics of representation’: The videos have deep personal perspectives and consist of interviews conducted with minorities that seldom have a voice of their own in China’s public realm. Neglected and ignored identities such as AIDS victims, prostitutes, political activists, homosexuals and drug addicts are being thoroughly questioned about their existence, their desires and defeats. Contrasting the disturbing narratives of exclusion, the aesthetic and the visual language of the videos consist of calm b/w close-ups focusing on every little expression of the inter-viewees. The outcome is a touching non-judgmental documentation of marginalized realities in today’s China.
