  • Video Art on the Edge

    “Video Art on the Edge” explores the creative potential of videotape degradation through manipulating documentation of an historical video installation exhibition from The Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam (1984), turning the material failure of video into an abstract, generative force. Video is a medium with a long but limited lifespan.

Bodies made up of 3D-rendered cultural objects hold space for the stories of Liaw’s elders, while expanding the growing web of her ancestral knowledge.
