Following her brutal murder, a young Asian woman enters the waiting room between heaven and hell only to find her case worker overly curious and strangely alluring.
This work, a commentary on voyeurism and our societal obsession with beautiful dead women, reimagines what gendered justice exists in the afterlife. It honors the lives of Asian women, such as Elisa Lam, whose deaths have been heavily sensationalized in true crime.
