In a temple in Laos, Ji Jia asked for a fortune with a question she had long carried: “Can I be an artist?” She shook a bamboo cylinder until a numbered stick fell out, then received a slip of paper with the corresponding message written in Lao. As she could not read the language, she asked several local people during her journey to explain its meaning. At no point did she reveal what her question was. All responses were documented on video.
