I way way is a sharp critic of the chinese regime in two thousand and eleven he was arrested for years he was not allowed china at the first opportunity he left and settled in but that was in july two thousand and fifteen. I didnt have a passport for over four years and i thought i would never get it back. I was in despair. And felt that we were living in a Society Without fundamental law and basic security and. They are too but no longer. A choice i retain lots of my family didnt know where i was in couldnt even down to a lawyer who should. Do a tennis abduction was meticulously planned that hed put a black hood over my head. So youre welcome. I did know where they were taking made the phone some secret place. And here there were two soldiers watching over me all day it will never move never spoke or huge i had to sit there while i was not allowed to move either buyouts or help or should be a fortune if i wanted to use the toilet and drink water. But i was only allowed to when they let me. From here was have a go. Go from one to obama i still have nightmares sometimes. Took dont see or else it will never go completely away.

We were so spy way way is a demanding. He expects his students to be passionate about their projects. Now very often they see your work in general you make it clear. You know your mind the whats happened but the story telling the narrative its not attractive because theres so much detail me sitting there and the most interesting part. So yeah i see you said you were clear. When you go for them that the installation was inspired by les most more i met many refugees it was the mayor gave me the lifejackets. I want to do use them when the time is right that most of the day its all right. I want to draw attention to the Refugee Crisis Center make it more of a public issue. So i would confront people in berlin or europe with it. So its more than just something they see on television every day. By way way caused an uproar when he was photographed on the island for an indian newspaper lying in the position in which the syrian tough cookie had been found dead on a beach in turkey. On understand why you cant do that. I think we should be able to take any photo we want to because im an artist isnt that what freedom of expression means. Children are dying every day not just. Thousands of already died in the sea. She has. To go. Or look at. How many people are dying in this very minute as we speak. We know how many children have died there and people care. What the only thing they care about is that i lay down like that its ridiculous. No one ever explained to me why i cant do that. And i certainly dont know. That they have different moral standards. I weigh way off and gets up a full five in the morning to work on his memoirs in which he also writes about his father the famous poets. Whats annoying my father had a Strong Influence on me because he was a man of principle or whatever he did he could do very well. Sort of it all. Washed. To show i was born in one nine hundred fifty seven you had the same year he was branded a rightist tissue i along with hundreds of thousands of others part of the n. T. Writers movement was how maos a dung dealt with chinese intellectuals. They were exiled to remote areas all the Living Conditions were miserable. Our situation in exile was like that of todays refugees in both cases people are declared enemies by a political system trickier. To make his documentary about the global refugee crisis human flow im way way and his team traveled to more than twenty countries. I. Just go in those cases walk and they are. So sure theres. Lighting and say on your way. Thats i won the interview him just. You know look look you. Know im not being you should just show the hard there you can turn a bit here to get us to. Where is your daddy i got the numbers. In afghanistan. Right. Now there are not got to my car in here because they dont know what this is about when you cant hear you miss them yeah. You know. Youre such a small smart boy you must be a very good student to school yeah thank you i mean First Mission school. Teacher. Its obvious that these people didnt come here in search of a better life for me its because they have no other choice double life and now theyre stuck here waiting to pass through oh to me that if the gate remains closed on gold they wont make a dime for them and dont want a black home. I. I. I. I. I do its like the end of the world theyre still. Old raleigh southward towards he said like obviously europe is working hard on a treaty with turkey to the bottom which in my view will turn the refugees into slaves. Because its all be nothing but its of exchange army will generally do so much no one really understands how to tackle the refugee problem and to really sit here. And i mean a good few i. Know are somewhere here. Because the grandson nice. Meaning. That we dont we dont need a meaning in piano. No way when you go in the big piano when youre the big piano we dont get the meaning piano. Theres a piano player only because i share this professional player because the wall i pad is in syria she cannot play fuzz. Three years so shes had them never know. What theyre there to go on the play is that a paid off and. I. Miss the little part you want to think for a longer harmful this is a total part of the one. Hundred you know i was surprised. As she began she suddenly said how do you play again i cant seem to play anyone. And i said. All this effort to get a piano when you forget it and she said i cant remember this and then she did play a few notes and i said just a couple of notes are ok. If i were a way family life is centered around the kitchen he likes to make chinese dumplings with his girlfriend one fan and their son i. Will let your father show you ill show you how you know. Rub them in the flour and itll work. Well what i did you know i really do want to tell you its easier. Just watch me. Go look like turn it. Roll it again. Thats fine. To me i was a good companion. To what he has a better relationship to his mother than he does to me and thats understandable. Im pretty strict and sometimes he may think im too strict. I often interfere in other peoples business. Well reprimand someone at the office he doesnt like that or to the cops. He says why do you criticize them like that point where i think thats great perhaps on. My way way has done a number of projects in new york recently and also looked for traces of his earliest days he first went there to study in one nine hundred eighty one then too he was living in exile like many other chinese artists of his generation he had wanted to escape oppression at home. You know your shorts are so through the us i feel free to be in the years i spent in new york from a twenty four to thirty six one hundred should i had some of my most important experience was going. To period i learned a lot about art and contemporary thought chase each other and senorita new york is also a very lonely city and i wasnt always happy. There for i was actually. I had no money here or you know i could hardly speak english in me or it was pretty hopeless. This is my apartment yeah. I just believe you know this story. And just cool one of those on the side of. I basically nothing to do in there i feel quite. Depressed. Yeah just away so that they know but that we stay here years and a few more years and a few more years. Was. In so much two thousand and sixteen i way way travel to beijing for his first visit since leaving china the year before. Or the chuvalo sure course im overshadowed from the minute i arrive theres no doubt about it. Its always going to be like that where youre from. Usually and the feeling of coming back. And i say. Its miserable its all gold you know nothings changed its a lot of some things have gotten worse from there you have on that altogether it puts you in a bad mood joke around you so you dont seem to get up. So you want are all right thats why i always twitter something every day but i know it doesnt have much of an effect for what you. Can tell this is stranger than expecting us or not or hard to tell. I specifically said i want to empty and clean i have got news. For you one more for this left right studio is very important to me. And its where ive been working since two thousand and six ten years already. So i got it back then i participated in the documentary and concert. For that so i knew a very large studio to realize my project in the band and thats why i rented it. Off we. Still need your sixteen point nine meters not sixteen meters hurdle the diameter is not correct if it doesnt fit and has to be completely redone if there are any problems like this a little after we really were. Going to have to say maybe the one. Hundred will look i see a lot of problems here at the seams. And i mean and if we made a model of a refugee book yet. Well we found a factory its specializes in this kind of boat. We ask why theyre so busy. Over what they said they have orders for thousands or tens of thousands of books for one order or from. Where they need so many boats ports and they said turkey what i summed up when i realized these results are for refugees or made they all come from this one manufacturer and im going to talk you know. That. This photo was taken when i just moved to new york. That you were cute back then handsome man so sweet ok but hes not so bad now either. As a child he was a very good boy how did he end up like this he was so tidy as a child he always wore clean clothes now he wears things that look like they came from the trash he was sweet as a child. And that. You know what they are while apart he was imprisoned for eighty one day. Later it became clear that he wasnt physically mistreated. But he couldnt stand the psychological torture. That he had no idea what would happen to him. Where do you see one days without daylight. What as his mother i was very worried whether he was even alive. Whether he was still with us whether he was being mistreated. I went through hell during there is a he one days. Away i thought im sending this picture to my grandson so he can see what his grandfather looked Like Washington because this is what i wrote oh yeah my darling this is my favorite photograph of me and your grandfather. It was taken in shanghai before your father was born that you and i ching and go here and you know thats almost sixty years ago mazing. Really almost sixty years im going to forget you were twenty three that you know yeah. He he i wanted to be where he can live in freedom like. Yes and i treated. Another one but its good that he still has a chinese passport so he can return because im still here. What you do after im gone is up to you but as long as im alive you need to come back at work then. There. You can stop us right. Here. On the phone for. Siegel my life is like an exile us. And my status is like that of a refugee i mean what a. Leader free life is with my child and my girlfriend. But i dont understand german readers so i cant easily take part in society or to walk in and i cant choose to return to my place of origin because its very unsafe. In me and if i could come to watch. On its own. You know means after the camp in uganda many was forcibly cleared there were all kinds of clothes shoes and other things left behind here comes the bill but i didnt want these things to be left behind that way it was to the lead so we collected the clothes and brought them to germany we watched them on and on everything up the sword and photographed it out you should watch out of it than see it go. Im going to be over such as the refugee issue is much bigger than me realize there will be no wars to go for more places will dry up like in kenya and then there will be more refugees since people wont be able to live there anymore. To go and the wall that america wants to build along the Mexican Border to go all those things are based on narrow minded political views that you can use based on excluding others peoples identity. For his film human flow i way way travel to israel and the gaza strip for the fust time a company does always on his travels by and large group of young assistants of many nationalities. I. Should their home your debate on the world is different kind. Refugees some are expelled that have to flee their country but there are so many refugees they get locked into a place and will never have the chance to move freely so you would say you dont. See. What you promised accomplish and i think these people feel miserable genius image and their sorrow doesnt just come from more but rather from cultural discrimination and isolation by other states. And its impossible to deal or cope with that in a lifetime the whole day or even the following generations might be refugees and thats the big tragedy playing out right now. But. Look i mean i have found for a guy you know if you have a person who is hard. For this animal from egypt wouldnt what you used to have tunnels try caves if it was easy to smuggle it out of us like this for the fellows of gaza. One in gaza. Way way he suddenly has an idea he decided to fill in this its not unusual for him to change his plans on the spur of the moment. Tiger is the king of the. But when they would be that locking him in a cage destroys the natural balance. Thats how i see it but the truth. Of the putting younger and i put you know the way people treat animals. Today is the way they treat each other. I dont think thats unfair for young. Girls and what do i think such a life was lost on me you should be getting. The city. Moving. In the world. Its not about i mean for them i mean it is not for. What i mean. So we. Mean we either make or break it off the wall it was so on the. Top of your generation i dont want to get it on t. V. Because most important to have a young peoples voices. Were a little bit bad so i kind of goes i mean interview which really is just sit over there yeah i think overnight altogether yeah yeah but lets come over here. I think im. Good dear. Whats your sense of the future is going to be a moment we have no hype or finding a job to study for the sake of getting a degree. Im going to. Actually i was like she didnt hear me i dont know i said this makes me sad. Im way way was back in new york again in late two thousand and sixteen for his exhibition at date projects made up of clothes discarded by refugees at domania camp this was the first of a series of major art projects in new york. One of the insights but the show is tricky one would expect the closing would be accretive for any clothing it would be like arabic dress very inferior this is exactly the same thing. As modern societies we have across models so sorry but this is a its a very profound mistake she just completely contemporary its the same thing that people are wearing here and brockway. This is. So i would wager will be that he doesnt want to have too many remarks because this is really his statement but im going to give him the microphone in what im. Saying trio for comment enjoy the show. You know your fever you mean the trouble for new york city is a city of immigrants. And everyone here has some connection to refugees or migrants and me thats why i find it fitting to show the exhibition here factor into chicago for sure. For sure although you go with every exhibition i also try to answer the question of who i am. Her. Hair i think the one thing i dont want every night was that she had her mother i didnt know what it was that when i had her i asked for it because. I had not read anything. On the film internationally have been working on the film human flow for a year and. Whats this we come from the rescue. After shastri set up the sun having twenty dating which have. Peace justice issues you know you do this all did one issue i didnt tell her thank you to the media. Cujo didnt have to beat up. I could tell that he was a. Ninja to the jewish. Terrorist in the region between us in the corner. Or towns or should i think what im doing has an effect its useful. But whether it helps the refugees from i just dont know. I dont know can help them hearing. This isnt a Single Person or as many millions worldwide and more than sixty Million People have lost their own the us and more are losing im every day. What are you sure my art is like a voice for me. When i use it to try it can be a song or lament ok she could go on the meaning of our changes. We need to change the language oh yeah you. Just. Might. Not be a good up version of my. Son. Your great. Great. Life thats. One of mine not. Stepping into the world of Classical Music which is our own will s.
