Halfway Seen, Halfway Home (半窥半归) examines my first-generation Chinese-Australian hybrid identity—a self shaped by migration, displacement, memory, and an ongoing negotiation between two worlds. Guided by the idea that what captures our attention reveals who we are, this exhibition presents eight autoethnographic moving-image works, each reflecting an aspect of my gaze that is uniquely Chinese yet shaped by my lived experience in Australia. Suspended between the land I once called home and the one I now inhabit, this work confronts the liminality and incompleteness of the first-generation immigrant experience, where home(s) is both familiar and foreign, ever-present yet always just beyond reach.
