︎︎︎ LONG TIME NO SEE ︎︎︎
My final project at CalArts is a digital archive of a Chinese-American history told through the lens of my own family history. I scanned hundreds of photos, interviewed family members, and researched endlessly, to try and represent the millions of choices and reactions my progenitors made to lead us exactly where we are today.This project has really changed my relationship to my family and family history. I uncovered things I wish I could forget, and learned to accept mistakes I thought I could never accept.
The site is semi-functional here, but is still a work in progress.
︎︎︎ A FAMILY TREE ︎︎︎
Using an accordion fold book, similar to traditional Chinese writing as the format, I combined photos from all throughout our family history to create a non-traditional semi-functional/semi-narrative tree.
