Video Installation of 13 videos of approx. 1min 30sec.

Sanjie is inspired by The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci. The unique figure of a young schoolgirl is playing all the characters of the painting, magnifying the same gestures. She wears a red scarf as did the Chinese Group of Young Pioneers. This scarf represents a part of the artist youth. The shirt has remained very white in her memory, although Cui Xiuwen knows that souvenirs fade realty. The ?colour of history? tries to erase horrors of the past. Judas may be any of us.
