Unbroken Family Connections

This board continues to explore the aspects of family connection while I am overseas. I realized that the key reason for my wish to grow is to reassure my family that I can look after myself well. At the same time, although the homesickness still lingers, it has turned to a positive appreciation of the love and care from my family. Lots of things remind me that I have never been too far away from home.

Whenever I miss home, I would look at old family photos and imagine myself standing beside them.

Inspired by John ClangÕs photography project ÒBeing TogetherÓ, I used the projection to achieve virtual reunion, and hold loved ones in my arms.
