They was available in a limited edition of 100 copies, designed by Yi Cao.
Intoxicated and Intoxicating Terroir of
‘Yellow Queer’ Theories:
experiences, positions, and subjectivities
(Upcoming)
This publication explores the fluidity and complexity of racial and gender identities. Author Muyang combines animation and critical theory to examine the intersections of race, queerness, and toxicity. As a queer Sinophone artist, Muyang navigates dual otherness in both Western and Sinocentric art, providing a detailed deconstruction of these identities.
A distinctive feature of the book is its use of the alphabet as an organizing principle, where each letter represents a notion relevant to the exploration of race, queerness, and toxicity. This flexible structure allows for a reflexive exploration of the subject matter. Drawing on scholars like Mel Y. Chen, Muyang highlights the dynamic potential at the intersection of race and queerness, revealing both risks and revolutionary possibilities. At the same time, the book critiques the marginalization within Dutch education and the decontextualization of theory in Western academia, arguing that such processes strip theories of their real-world relevance.
