2024

Two generations of a family are each in their own journey as foreigners in a new land. This volume combines family archival material and personal photography work, juxtaposing images of my country of birth against that of my country of cultural heritage. The scenes depicted feel almost absurd as subjects appear as locals in their respective locations but, in reality, are seen as outsiders. The title of the book roughly translates to “little Yankee”—a diminutive of a term meaning a patriotic American citizen—which my uncle called me as a child during my visits to China.
