Tongues
Yibin Wang and Yejia Sun
Tongues is a gathering, an event, and a performance where we’ll re-enact the most mundane daily moments, belt out our go-to karaoke songs, and, of course, explore the art of swearing in our native Asian languages. Join us as we connect and create new, shared experiences through the power of our mother tongues.
