For the entirety of my life, I have been consistently surrounded by my family’s culture. From  a young age, I found myself pushing away my English heritage which seemed mundane to me whilst simultaneously growing more fond of my Chinese culture which was vibrant and exciting. This photographic body of work is a documentation of my yearning desire to go to Hong Kong and the conflicting feeling that I will be leaving a part of me behind.
