POR POR’S HOUSE

I began photographing my Por Por’s house just after she suffered from a stroke and was recovering in hospital. It is a house that I associate with Chinese cultural customs, and my Chinese Malaysian heritage, it is a kind of source. The house is a hybrid space where East and West come together to sit side by side. It is the place where my cultural blend comes into focus in sometimes familiar, sometimes strange ways.

Por Por = Chinese for maternal grandmother.
