“Tanah Tumpahnya Darah Kita” is a three-piece artwork installation produced in conjunction with Malaysia’s National Day, in which old war photos were recreated using locally sourced soil and sand. The project pays homage to Malaysia’s war veterans by re-enacting the personal experiences of these soldiers, such as losing fellow comrades and leaving loved ones behind to fight on the frontlines, thus capturing the essence of sacrifices endured whilst fighting for their country.
Resin and soil overlaid with layers of small rocks, leaves, wood chips, twigs and charcoal were used to recreate these scenes. In one of the more acutely personal pieces, portions of text from real letters written by a veteran to his wife were scanned and embedded into the panel, accentuating the intimate emotions attached to the visual representation of his memory.
“Tanah Tumpahnya Darah Kita”，翻译为 “流淌着我们鲜血的土地” 是为配合马来西亚国庆节而制作的三件艺术品装置。该作是为了向马来西亚退役军人而致敬的。军人们的亲身经历如：丧失战友的痛、为了作战而离乡背井的辛酸与不舍都在作品中被淋漓尽致地呈现出来。
