Embark on a transformative journey spanning a decade of collaboration between the visionary artist Xie Rong, also known as Echo Morgan, and the astute photographer Jamie Baker.

This exhibition offers a profound glimpse into 15 live performances, eloquently captured through photographs, videos, and objects, preserving the essence of each riveting moment.
