In a neon karaoke room, a man’s singing unravels into fractured loops. As phrases repeat, an animated creature appears. Their surreal exchanges drift between grief and laughter, revealing detachment from his mother tongue and pop music’s weight. Karaoke becomes stage and refuge, where memory, loss, and desire are endlessly rehearsed.

Jiawei Zheng is a Copenhagen-based visual artist. From narrative experimental film to video collage, installation, and text, each of her pieces serves as a portal, inviting viewers to embark on a journey of re-imaginary, where the boundaries between past and present, truth and fiction, seamlessly intertwine and fade away.
