A&D ANNUAL 2021
Jihyun Shin (& Cici Han)
Cici Han and Jihyun Shin’s work explores Asian representation in Western film and media, by breaking the stereotype of a passive Asian character. ‘Time to Celebrate’ is a single-channel short experimental film that showcases three young Asian women in Australia expressing their culture through their individuality, by discussing the greatest aspects of their culture. Influenced by the dreadful events that happened amongst the Asian community in the past, particularly the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, the work aims to enlighten the representation of Asian community in Western media, by portraying a fun and inspiring attitude through the lens of three Asian young adults in Australia.
