The Decolonial Fortune-teller (2016)

Madame May Chang, the Decolonial Fortune-teller, interacts with audience members one-on-one.  Her “fortunes” are indigenous critiques of Han Chinese colonization of Taiwan based on Atayal writer Walis Norgan’s poem, “The Chinese Animal Zodiac for Aborigines.” Audiences leave with paper fortunes that include excerpts of Norgan’s poem and letters written to the performer’s  indigenous ancestor.
