Hui 家
Hui 家 was selected for the Radical Return exhibition which was curated for a group of Chinese(-American designers). The exhibition is staged at @buartgalleries in Boston and @isagallery_shanghai in Shanghai.
We all have a home to return to, although it often relocates. The bold characters “家”, are Chinese translation for home, representing the SAME eager of returning home for everyone. In the background, the contour of the maps for Hengyang, Toronto, and Boston, enclosed with poem written by myself, remarks my devotion and love to my three homes where I grew up; separated from my parents; and started my own family respectively. Surrounding text around the edges are questions always asked in daily life on where you are from, or in other words, where you want to RETURN to.
