Together / Alone–Under Suburban Sky is intrinsically tied to my experience moving to the U.S. at the age 40 from China. I dressed up as an ordinary suburban housewife to show scenes of daily life. This project has been the primary source material in creating a body of work that explores the migrant narrative and the suburban housewife’s experience, albeit through a personal lens. While my need to decipher and address my own life is personal, my work has always touched upon universal themes, with the potential to start a dialogue about cultural differences and similarities.
