📣 A chance to see Turner Prize nominee Sin Wai Kin's work for FREE in 'Drawing Attention' @britishmuseum until 28 August 💋

Sin Wai Kin's series 'Impressions' documents their drag performances by taking an imprint of their makeup with a face wipe, acting as a ‘death mask’ for the drag character it preserves.
