In the Name of the Father II
2015-Present
My father, Chung Hu, is always willing to be my model and enjoys performing.
He is a seventy-year-old man but so energetic that he could never be called old.
He likes to show his self-learned water ballet, which combines four swimming styles, belly dance and Chinese qigong, in public.
I titled this project “In the Name of Father” to convey the spirit his has kept me up.
That is to say, the imagination and persistence I observe in him have been inherited as part of my personality, especially in my way of doing art.
