Tsang Kin-Wah's immersive video and sound installation, "The Second Seal –Every Being That Opposes Progress Shall Be Food For You" (2009) has been acquired by the Sigg Collection. “The title comes from the Bible, but I made certain changes to create a contemplation on the concept of a struggle between powers and classes. In the process of my research on this theme, I encountered a number of articles and materials that inspired me and from which I chose some sentences, phrases, and keywords. After this stage of collection, I edited and arranged the textual materials in a poetic manner, or, say, using a methodology of making a poem”, says Tsang.
