“Growing up in a multiracial family, I never learned Chinese, so I was used to having ‘conversations’ that weren’t verbal.

It’s happening all the time, but maybe it’s more obvious when we’re speaking a different language.”
Wu Tsang, Devotional Document (Part 1) is at Nottingham Contemporary, 20 May to 28 August; then at Fact, Liverpool, from October.
