Presentation

in-between: home, belonging, and the Asian diaspora
Description“in-between" is a modular installation about the immigrant experience and the difficulty of defining home. Born in Philippines and raised across China, Japan, and United States, I translate my own migration history—and seven interviews with Asian diaspora who moved to Tokyo—into fragile material and participatory data portraiture. The work unfolds in three parts: “deportation”, a two-hour performance where water drips onto washi printed with my life-journey at a cadence driven by worldwide searches for “deportation”; “home:1–8”, silkscreened interview portraits mounted in space; and “home:collective”, where visitors add their journeys and are paired with a stranger whose definition of home resonates.
