Halfway Seen Halfway Home (半窥半归) is a moving-image exhibition exploring ChineseAustralian hybrid identity—a sense of self shaped by migration, memory, and the ongoing negotiation between two worlds.
This is the first project by Guyliewzy, an artist collective formed by two first-generation Chinese-Australians, Ming Liew and Will Wang. Guided by the idea that what captures their attention reveals who they are, the artists travelled to (or back to) China in search of new insights into their identities, while attempting to resist an increasingly polarised and antagonistic worldview. The exhibition features eight autoethnographic moving-image works, each reflecting an aspect of their gaze that is undeniably ‘Chinese’, yet precariously ‘Australian.’
Suspended between the land once called home and the one now inhabited, the 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.
