Yihao envisions People, Crowd, Mass as a queer interactive performance that could never take place on the streets of China.
Set on the bridge of WPU, this act transforms a public walkway into a site of confrontation and communion.
Through uniforms, gestures, and the dismantling of symbolic authority, Yihao explores how power defines — and confines — identity.
The work aims to unweave the spell of obedience, allowing the audience to witness the collapse of invisible walls within themselves.
“人从众群” questions: When a person becomes part of a crowd, do they still remain an individual—or just another figure in the mass?
