Living within a massive simulacrum explores everyday life within constructed realities across China, the UK, and Malaysia. Through photographs of themed shopping malls, amusement parks, and cultural replicas, the project reflects on how simulated environments shape our sense of place, identity, and desire in an increasingly image-saturated world.
Living within a massive simulacrum
Distance and time, infinitely detailed
Pulsing digits
Space is blurred
Capital is deceitful
---ism(s) are false
Sounds, mimicry from the boxes
Temperature is simulated
Looking at blue sky -- might be LED lights
My Home is a rendered showroom
My Brothers are hiding behind screens.
Sharing nutrition concealed in pills
