“S’émanciper” by Jiahui LI
With Ziwei WU, Exhibition Curator
"Emancipating Oneself" is an exhibition of artworks by the artist Jiahui that will show the value of self-identification, the search for the meaning of identity, the realization of spiritual freedom and independence, and the path to emancipation. Let us transcend time, space and all the boundaries between touch, distance and the crossing of bodies to feel the life and energy that flow from love.

Despite the fact that the world is today more inclusive and people more open-minded, there is still resistance and psychology in understanding and accepting LGBT, one of the reasons being that people themselves feel fearful and repressed because of this orientation and do not accept themselves.
Self-identity has no temporal stages. It is dynamic throughout a person’s life.
It refers to the person’s perception and creation of the self in a given context and the corresponding sense of belonging. Self-identity is explained by the individual’s awareness of their past experiences in relation to their current situation and by their perception of possibilities for the future.
The future will remember us, the past will transform us, the present shows us.
But we will be discovered and exploited.
We will meet again, we will find our bodies again, we will find the characteristics of our identity that belong to us and we will feel confident and proud of them.
