in between, annie lai
Annie Lai photographed different Chinese girls in their homes in London. Most of them leave their hometowns at young ages, they live and grow here, while trying to integrate into a completely different society. They often face the inevitable fate of returning to their hometowns eventually. Struggling with sense of belonging myself, Lai wanted to capture the strength and the fragility of each subject through the intimate settings of their homes.

How can this nothingness feel so big, so heavy.
While at the same time it feels like there’s nothing at all.
I’m sorry I keep fucking up
I’m just so afraid that I’ll fail again
Sorry, I feel stuck. Too worn out to manage decent art. Each word feels like a repeat of things I’ve said a thousand times already. There are no words for the current chaos. The fear, the pressure I feel. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. And I know I don’t have to be but I just want to satisfy them. But mostly I want to satisfy myself.
