Japanese illustrator , with this project, explores ways of storytelling without words and the social value of illustration. TRANSITION is a silent book, that is, a picture book that the story is told only with illustrations. The story relates to the issue of “uniform society” and “majority and minority.” It is about a man who moved to a city and tells how he becomes “anonymous” in their society. There are many different visual clues in the story, and they encourage the reader’s visual literacy. In other words, it might change into different stories depending on how the reader interprets them. Also, the story has no specific ending, and it would be created by the reader.

Born and raised in Beijing, Lexy (also known as Xiao Liangzi) is an artist and researcher, currently based in Bergen and London. She works with alternative photographic processes, textile, and moving images, regarding photography as performance and action above the content of the image. She sees her artistic practice as a way to reach self-awareness and self-transcendence. She is interested in repetitive gestures, durational performance, materiality, exploring how time, perception, and repetition can produce a form of visibility and aesthetic experience. Her practice is about experimentally performing the making processes- a repeated working process, investigating the ways to interpret pairs of paradoxical ideas around repetition, such as degradation and superposition, interruption and continuity, permanence and impermanence. She tends to interpret her investigations in a philosophical way, trying to build a connected, consistent and poetic theory system through her artistic practice.
