Inspired by the ruins of a dragon-shaped ship that Lam could see from her studio window in art school. In 1990 the ship sailed from Shanghai to Gothenburg, Sweden, with the intention of serving Chinese food to European customers across ports in the North and Baltic Seas. The ruins of this historic vessel serve as a jumping-off point for Lam’s dreamlike story of loss, memory, and resilience.
