"Save Myanmar" by May Lay

"Coup d'état", the word we hate the most, had come back to our daily life already for more than six months now. Since day one of the coup in February I joined the protests but from a far away place. The only way I had was to make small performance videos and posted on social media.

I was in northern Finland where only the snow were around. I didn't have anything except a lipstick to draw. I made videos every early morning while people are sleeping, writing with lipstick on my face, hands and record myself.

As my first try in performance, I concentrated on my eyes, reverse drawing of the words and the silent background. I used red colour in order to reveal the strong will of people who want to drive away the devilish junta and to tell the world how brutal and difficult the situation inside Myanmar is. . 1080 x 720 px 1.09 min
