This presentation is based on Ho Tzu Yen's works The Name (2015) and The Nameless (2015), both of which come out of the artist's ongoing project The Critical Dictionary of Southeast Asia (cdosea). The former is derived from "G" for Gene Z. Hanrahan and the latter from "L" for Lai Teck, "L" for Legibility of abecedaire pf six concepts, motifs and biographies that constitute the cdosea. Since its inception in 2012, cdosea has generated a number of works, serving as sketchbook which facilitates ongoing research and generates future projects. It proposes a term for each letter from the English alphabet.
