Video and performance artist Min Wong explores themes of authenticity, otherness, and gender through the reenactment and reinterpretation of world cinema and popular culture. In this work, first presented in his 2019 solo exhibition 'Fake Daughter's Secret Room of Shame' at project space ASAKUSA, Wong appears as a fictional porn actress. Wong draws on the visual language of Japan’s 1960s pink films—independently produced erotic cinema—and the later Nikkatsu Roman Porno series, combining these references with the production methods of contemporary digital video. The result is a cross-temporal reenactment that links different eras and media. Designed for viewing on a smartphone, the work reflects how images of desire, pleasure, and secrecy have migrated over time—from the cinema, to home video, and now to online platforms. Wong, a male artist, performing the role of a female objectified by male desire, queers the hegemonic gaze embedded in pink film. At the same time, the work gestures toward the rise of cross-dressing expression circulating in Asian subcultures since the 2010s, including Japan’s otokonoko (男の娘) and the Chinese term wei niang (偽娘).
