Gordon Fung works across performance, media installation, experimental video, sound, participatory theater, writing, and curatorial practice. His work moves between playful and esoteric registers, but the underlying concern is consistent: how art might help people ask better questions, become more attentive to interdependence, and remain human amid historical repetition, technological acceleration, and social fragmentation. In this edited text-based conversation, Fung reflects on collectivism, stewardship, media, Land-based knowledge, contemplative duration, and why he continues to pursue work that resists both professional narrowing and conceptual simplification.

Bajo el eufemismo de "territorio" o "estado libre asociado", Puerto Rico continúa su existencia como una colonia de Estados Unidos de Norteamérica.

Desde las consignas cimarronas del siglo 19*,  pasando por la militancia del partido nacionalista en el siglo 20**, hasta los estatutos y desenlaces a los vericuetos de la ley "Promesa"***, la estructura percusiva en tambor, danza y voz enciende al colectivo a reivindicar su lucha por la soberanía.

Rechazoron la esclavitud en búsqueda de libertad, dignidad y la preservación de sus culturas. Accionaron una amenaza económica (pérdida de propiedad) y social (instigación de rebeliones) para los colonos.
