author: LEE-PISAPIA Kam Fu Bernadette
This site is built using my name Bernadette Kam Fu Lee
This was the name I used when I studied in Hong Kong, Canada, Scotland
The name spelled as Li Kam Fu Bernadette was used in Italy
When I got married in 1990, my name was written as Bernadette Kam Fu Lee in Pisapia or Bernadette Kam Fu Lee-Pisapia
thus a site using my married name is: bernadetteleepisapia.it
Kam Fu Lee was my name at birth, and therefore,
Kam Fu Bernadette Lee-Pisapia is my closest compromise for all the cultures who try in one way or another to locate me
There are many self portraits on both sites, perhaps, is a way for friends and old friends to locate me
Enjoy this site and most of all, enjoy Art

new names assigned during my stay at The Royal College of Art 1-August to 12 August
the name on the card given to me reads: Kam Fu Lee Bernadette
( as if my last name is understood as Kam since Bernadette is definitely a first name )
the name given to me on the entrance of my studio space as well as the label printed for the final exhibition of my work : Bernadette Kam Fu Lee
the 12-day certificate reads : Kam Fu Bernadette Lee-Pisapia, the official name registered initially
with the delicate problem of identity theft, one therefore questioned as to why such adaptations were used without giving the participant an adequate explanation
