    Touching Happiness

    Photography by Jamie Baker

    3 hours, 04/01/2014 @ CiYun Taoism Temple, XiaoZhou Village, GuangZhou

    I was 24 weeks pregnant on the 4th of Jan 2014.

    I blew 200 balloons in duration of 3 hours. Audience are encouraged to take away of the red balloons as sign of sharing happiness. The audience were also invited to touch my pregnant belly. Inspired by Chinese custom “ Touch Blessing ”

    There was hidden noise sensor, when their hand reaches my belly. They hear mixed sound of temple bell and my son’s heartbeats ( baby heart beats) ! This is a sensitive, peaceful and spiritual ceremony but based on trust.

    This performance took place as part of GuangZhou Digitalive Exhibition.
