Jingjing Lin has a practice that includes performance, installation, painting, video and mixed media. Her works center around the concept of self-identity cognition and presentation, from which she explores multiple paradoxes such as perplexity versus exploration, existence versus deficiency, constraint versus resist. Through engaging with the audience, Lin aims to provoke reflections on some quotidian yet profound concepts - How to define "oneself" and "the others"? How do politics, economy, culture and history influence us? ¿……I……¿is an interactive site specific performance conceived byJingjing Lin where a group of performers read out loud and in cadence excerpts from speeches delivered by Donald Trump during his presidency where all the text has been removed except for the pronoun "I" and emphatic words such as "great" and "huge". The rhythm of the performance is controlled by a metronome activated by the artist. ¿……I……¿brings to the surface emerging conflicts and confusions that rise against the backdrop of current political and cultural situations. Together with the artist, performers will interact through simple and poetic body movements and vocal performance with the audience and their surroundings. ¿……I……¿is the fourth iteration of a socially-engaged art project presented by Lin Jingjing in Beijing (Chinese version, Whitebox Art Center, 2011), Santiago (Spanish version, Chilean National Museum of Fine Arts, 2011) and Cologne (German version, Neues Kunstforum, 2012). The English version of this project is conducted during the artists's residency at RU in New York in June 2018.
