Sui Zhen at Phoenix Central Park

Becky Sui Zhen Freeman is a Chinese-Malaysian ‘Australian’ artist, musician and creative producer working across audio, visual and interactive mediums. She lives and works on unceded Wurundjeri land.

Her musical project Sui Zhen examines loss on multiple levels, from the death of loved ones to the widespread societal tendency to disappear within the 1’s and 0’s of modern life's tech-driven obsession.

From the banal pastel dystopia of the Secretly Susan era’s music videos to the invention of Linda, a ghostly apparition in the Losing, Linda LP, Becky’s cinematic, surreal and staged landscapes situate her unique take on pop music within its own uncanny terrain.

Becky’s most recent LP is a collaboration with Chinese-Australian guzheng player and composer Mindy Meng Wang 王萌. Their debut collaborative record Origin of You centres around the continual shift in an individual’s understanding of identity and of the self – coming to terms with who you are, where you are from, and where you will go. It is about birth, life and death. It is also about transformation: from daughter to woman, woman to mother, outsider to friend.

Sui Zhen will perform at Phoenix Central Park on Thursday 21 November 2024.

Free tickets via ballot only.
