This project is about the relationship and interaction between spaces and people. Inspired by the lockdown imposed in Shanghai during the pandemic. In the prolonged isolation, people's lives are disconnected from the outside world, each domestic space becomes their own little world, and the connection between the living space and the isolated people is magnified as never before. Domestic spaces include multiple meanings to people. The artist would like to explore the individual characteristics of people's domestic spaces and how they reflect their personal identities.
