Silent Acappella
The piece is Xiao Ke's alone singing, facing all of you and her life. It's a self composition and reading; a mirror reflecting her mermory. To be born, and grow. To believe, and doubt. To be generous, and jealousy. To be honest, and dishonest. She is Standing on an indistinct line, keep asking the truth that perhaps has never been alive in one single realm. Silent singing, connecting outside and inside, the two different realms, resisting the guilts of one is to deny the innocence of the other.To justify one's being, is to justify the lies. Her body is Like ant, weak and small to be trampled, but also tough and stubborn to remove a mountain. Nothing belonging to her, but herself.
