<\/a>This website is in support of art project I developed\u00a0when on the Whisper residency at the Chinese Arts Centre, Manchester, UK in June & September 2006. Prior to the residency I was also participating in their Professional Artist Development (PAD) scheme for early career Chinese Artists in the UK. If you would like to find out more about them and their residency programs, you can visit them at www.chinese-arts-centre.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

June Residency<\/h2>\n

Before i had started my residency I had done a number of works about my own experiences of transracial adoption. This residency was developed from a very quick idea that had in 2003 as part of my BA. At the time it was not appropriate to do a textual project on a photography course, but I always had visions of making 100’s of bunnies, enough to fill a whole room!\u2026 instead I did a serious of 5 scans of my bunny. I longed to unlock some secret about my foster family personality through the stitching.\u00a0I wasn’t happy with the bunny scans i did in 2003, so i decide I would revisited it and do a larger series of closeups while on my June residency (below).<\/p>\n
