My father was born in Hong Kong and my mother was in Mainland
China (her parents were born in Hong Kong but le! in order to escape
from the Japanese occupation during World War II). Therefore, my
mother was not allowed to come to Hong Kong and live with us until
1998 due to immigration and visitor rules. Hong Kong was a British
colony before 1997. Permanent residents of the city could apply for the
British National (Overseas) passport before, and the Hong Kong Special
Administrative Region passport a!er the handover. However, having
the BNO passport does not grant the right of abode or the permission to
work in the UK. Under these situations, I started to question my identity
and our freedom of choosing where to live and work. We live under the
same sky; the world only has one sky; every human should have the
same equal rights. The sky in square canvas represents the unknown
and infinity, but is bounded by an invisible stretcher like national
borders and rules.
