Far From Home is a personal journey into the memory of a place never seen, tracing the escape of the artist's family from war-torn China to Thailand. Through video and painting, the work confronts fractured language, generational silence, and the struggle to reconstruct identity from inherited trauma. It offers a poetic meditation on absence, resilience, and the invisible scars of history.
