Ljaljeqelan Patadalj and Sudipau Tjaruzaljum (Taiwan) employ video, hand-weaving, and mixed media in their installation to delve into topics of migration and “return.” They seek pathways for reclaiming individual agency and the cultural self-awareness and identity of the new generation, redefining the essential relationships between human existence and our environmental sphere. In their work The Distance Between Us is Not the Ocean, the “ocean” serves as a cultural bridge, while human bodies navigate the migratory routes of “mountains and rivers.” These geographical features—mountains, rivers, and sea—intertwine and engage in dialogue amid history. In the A Voice series, traditional shell ginger weaving techniques are employed to give “voice” to a central theme. Whether in the natural landscapes of their native lands or in bustling urban cities, the artist convey a longing: to emerge from the labyrinth of existential uncertainties and to articulate an unambiguous sense of identity and belonging through their artistic oeuvre.
