Tony Altermatt – huǒlóng

“ Huǒlóng evokes the memories and feeling that we might get from a country we have never lived in. We explore then intertwine symbols and images, giving birth to our own culture.

From East to West, I create my representation of the second generation of the Chinese diaspora. Silently built, two distinct landscapes merge.

Our youth evolves, oscillating between two cultures. The osmosis is palpable, between traditional heritage and desire for emancipation. This fictional story is the fruit of a journey. The protagonists gather to exchange their views. We connect lands, objects and environments.

This is our way of representing ethnic mixing: a poetic symphony, where boundaries are dissolved.“
