Jingyun Li

Jingyun Li (born 1995 in Xi’an) is a freelance theater artist and producer. Living and working across languages, have strongly shaped their approach to art making and performance.  In their artistic practice they explore a wide range of themes such as sexuality, migration, cultural identity and censorship through the lens of language. 
Jingyun Li use languages as artistic material to playfully reshape ways of writing, speaking and communication and to question the worldview, ideology and power of languages.

Being a non-native in the languages, they look for expressive potentials in mistakes, imperfections, hybrid languages - forms of non-standardized language use and linguistic alienation. 

Projects

Bönen

Begleitet wird die Grand Snail Tour von Künstler*innen aus dem Bereich Literatur, Fotografie und Zeichnung, die zeitgleich zum Aufenthalt des Tourmobils, Eindrücke und Reflexionen aus jeweils derselben Stadt sammeln und diese sie visuell oder literarisch ins Bild setzen. So entsteht ein Paratext zur 3-jährigen Tour, der in Form einer Reisechronik, ein Kaleidoskop an Geschichten, Verbindungen, Momentaufnahmen in den 53 Städten der Region als Gleichzeitigkeiten und Ungleichzeitigkeiten zur Grand Snail Tour sichtbar werden lässt.
