character development

When someone was born differently, others would see him or her as an abnormal entity and even look down on those people, for example, people with Down syndrome. I still remembered I did not know how to communicate with them naturally when I first met them. However, after getting in touch with them, I have started to change my view. 

This video installation is about a girl, Hei Hei, who has Down syndrome and showing her daily life from baby to middle age. Each picture is based on the experience I heard from the parents and my impression to Down syndrome people during my first hand research. 

She is different, but same as us.

 

當有人在身體或精神上有殘缺,便會被人戴上有色眼鏡看待,例如唐氏綜合症。我也曾低估他們的能力,但後來經深入接觸,卻改變我對他們的想法。

 

視像作品關於一位叫喜喜,患有唐氏綜合症的女孩。圖畫描繪她由出身到步入中年的生活。靈感來自不同的真實故事及我接觸後對他們的印象。
