We have a show in the library called “Best Dressed”, and this piece was what I did for it. Under dictatorship, people usually wear the same mindset as their ‘uniform’ – sometimes it is not because the dictators make them do so, but themselves, voluntarily get rid of the 'dangerous knowledge’ only to be able to protect themselves and thus, survive. There is an old saying in Chinese:“ one palm does not make any sound”. In another word, to make a sound, we will need two of them work at the same time.
