Sin Wai Kin (FKA Victoria Sin) in 2018 at Live Art Bistro, Leeds
Sin Wai Kin (formerly Victoria Sin,[1] born 1991) is a Canadian visual artist[2] who uses "speculative fiction within drag performance, moving image, writing and print to refigure attitudes towards gender, sexuality and historical discourses of identity."[3] They are known for their immersive performance art and drag artistry, a practice which they use to "interrupt normative processes of desire, identification, and objectification."[2]
Sin's drag aesthetic references range from Jessica Rabbit to Marilyn Monroe.[4] Their drag serves to destabilise essentialist and binary notions of gender by illustrating its performative nature.[4] Further, in their own words, their drag practice is a mechanism of "exercising entitlement" and taking up space in predominantly white, male spaces.[5]
Sin's visual art practice surfaces and critiques the labour of performing femininity, Western beauty standards and "identification with gendered and raced imagery and the ways it is inscribed and performed on bodies."[5] These themes emerge in Sin's series of used makeup wipes which act as a "relic of the performance, or the labour that was done that evening."[6]
Sin is also known for investigating speculative fiction as a medium to surface and platform intersectional queer experience, most notably in their project Dream Babes, an ongoing series of events, performances and publications.[7] They are particularly interested storytelling as a collective way of narrating the marginalised experience, and in the use of "science fiction as a way of visualizing alternative narratives and social structures to those in our own social context."[3]
