Get Whitey

Last year I spent six months working in Malaysia.  I was in the city of Kuala Terengganu which you’ve never heard of and can best be described as the Utah of Malaysia.  Super religious, no alcohol, and legal polygamy (but within limits.  No more than 4 wives).

Needless to say, there weren’t many tourists.  And on the rare occasions when I chanced upon one, they wouldn’t make eye contact.  Apparently I was ruining their authentic experience.

So I started a project.  To pose in pictures with as many white tourists as possible without their consent.

    I do that too, except instead of white people, I photo with freaks. I’ve built up quite an album.
