IT'S
GREAT 2B AMERICAN
Inspired by Kwongs discoveries while traveling
in Laos, China, Indonesia, Cambodia, and Thailand, IG2BA grapples with the irony
of having a U.S. passport and an Asian face. Combining dynamic stylized movement
& poetic text with narrative, Kwong confronts the Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde
within the American psyche; from champion of democracy to global imperialist
bully. IG2BA is a fierce and darkly humorous search for a national identity
beyond arrogance, denial, and guilt. Sometimes eloquent, sometimes blunt, Kwong
moves with a muscular grace amidst striking visual imagery. An extremely timely
work that speaks powerfully to Americas place in the world - its checkered
past, troubled present and hopeful future.
