This installation is an intimate viewing and listening experience pairing a short video documentation with a selection of audio works. Sonic gestures and visual motifs exist in tandem, guiding you through fragmented memories and unresolved phrases. The work reflects an acceptance of physical place and surrender to situational constraint, an acknowledgment of past conditions and present realities.

About the exhibition
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 家?
𝐈𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐠𝐮𝐱𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐠 故乡, 𝐚 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐧;
𝐋𝐚𝐨𝐣𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐠 老家, 𝐚 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐜𝐲;
𝐨𝐫 𝐙𝐡𝐮𝐳𝐡𝐢 住址, 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐝, 𝐝𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝?
家 resists singular definition. For those shaped by migration, displacement, and chosen kinship, home is not fixed in geography but assembled through memory, sensation, language, and care. It is carried in the body, stretched across time zones, and continuously remade.
This exhibition approaches 家 not as a destination, but as a process—one marked by movement, rupture, and longing. To 回家 is not merely to return to a place, but to transgress the colonial absence of intimacy, safety, or spiritual entanglement. 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞, 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐚 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡, 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠. As Ocean Vuong suggests, home is less about arrival than about where tenderness is permitted to survive.
Bringing together three artists, 郑晴 𝐀𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐞 𝐙𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐠, 𝐈𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐥 玥 𝐋𝐢 & 𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐫𝐚 嘟嘟 , whose practices engage diaspora, queerness, and relational forms of belonging.
