战纹是一个由摄影、影像和诗歌组成的视觉艺术作品。它着眼于赞扬女性身份以及尊重性别的可能性，同时反对由父权制支持的歧视和限制。战纹结合了纹身这一古老的用以传递精神和信仰的技艺。我选择将女性器官（子宫、阴户、乳房）以深色颜料纹在一幅亚裔女性的肖像上，这暗示着我的种族和性别身份。我厌恶那些需要女性成为一个由别人定义的正确且合适的女人的要求，因此这幅肖像并不是一张完美而准确的照片。针在照片表面造成的损伤提醒着观众，性别问题发生在真实世界同时持续产生真切的影响。
此外，我为不同状况下的女性器官设计了不同的图案。这呼吁女性考虑彼此之间不同的文化背景和身体状态。一幅纹身图案是一种女性的生活。一系列的图纹展现了许多种女性群体的生活的可能性，无论她们来自哪里。我试图将不同种族和文化背景的女性连接在一起，鼓励她们反映自己的女性经历并且在其他女性身上寻找与自己的共同点。女人分享着父权制所构建的命运。同时，女人们分享她们生活于一个不公平的社会的可贵勇气而且为了提升社会的包容性努力着。
女性不仅有姐妹情谊也拥有勇士精神。

Warrior Tattoo is a visual art project composed of photographs, a video and a poem. This work aims to honor the female identity and to respect possibilities of gender, in order to oppose the discrimination and limitation supported by patriarchy. It also combines the tattooing technique, an ancient method of conveying spirit and belief. I chose to tattoo female organs (womb, vulva and breasts) with the dark color on an Asian woman’s portrait which implies my race and female identity. The portrait is not a perfect and accurate photograph because I am sick of the many requirements that demanded women to be the right and appropriate woman who is defined by others. Meanwhile, the damage made by a needle on the surfaces of photos reminds viewers that gender issues are happening and keep making an impact in the real world. In addition, I have designed different patterns to represent the female organs in different conditions. It appeals to women to consider the differences of cultural backgrounds or physical body situations between each other. A pattern describes a kind of life of a woman. A series of patterns depict many different types of lives of female communities, showing the possibilities of a woman’s life wherever she comes from. I attempt to connect women from different races and cultural backgrounds, and encourage them to reflect on their female experiences and seek things in common from other females’ lives. Women are sharing the destinies structured by patriarchy. Meanwhile, women also share their courage while living in an unfair world and striving to improve inclusivity in societies. Women do have not only sisterhood but also warriorhood.

Born in 1993 in Nanchang, China, Qiu Ruiqi moved to Melbourne in 2019 and graduated with a Master’s degree in Photography at RMIT University in 2021. Qiu Ruiqi is a photographer interested in the relationship between reality and its photographic representation. The photographic and sculptural work questions the sense of reality and the concrete. It disrupts the unconscious reading of authenticity to stimulate a rethinking of the intersectional area of photographs’ content and the real world outside the image. She is obsessed with exploring new ways of understanding photography with a sceptical attitude toward the common views of photographs. As a Chinese and Asian female and a queer, Qiu Ruiqi engages gender issues in her work to reflect women’s sisterhood and warriorhood and highlight the absurdity of patriarchy. And concerning race issues that minorities face, she paid attention to expressing the voice of her own race and the situations of other communities of minorities.
