Double Exposure / 雙重曝光
Double Exposure / 雙重曝光 connects my New York apartment to my distant family's home in Puli, Taiwan, through a single live, unedited feed from one window. My family is never in frame. In my bedroom, their view is projected at a 63° angle, the bearing between both homes, so Puli's morning cuts across the room during New York's evening.
The sound stays outside. Live audio from Puli, mostly roosters and birds building with the morning, seeps under my door and rises through the building's stairwell, leading visitors to a final text and a door that opens onto the New York sky, where Taiwan is nowhere to be found.
The work began with a childhood habit of wondering whether my family saw the same sky. It doesn't close the distance. It lets two places overlap without ever fully meeting.
