Description When William’s mother died in 1992, he embarked on a personal journey to rediscover his immediate and extended family. The result is Blood Links, a visual feast, an intriguing blend of storytelling, social history, performance and documentary photography with humour and irony. A family story of birth, traditions, skeletons, death, love and food – hauntingly familiar in content. The performance entices the audience to take a journey of their own. Prompted by Yang's incisive observations, they reflect and draw personal conclusions about their own family histories.
