What can family photographs reveal about identity, colonialism and migration?

This event brings together artist-filmmaker Clare Chun-yu Liu and researcher Emily Beswick for a film screening and conversation.

Clare will screen two of her films, ?This is China of a particular sort, I do not know? and ?Another beautiful dream?.
These films re-interpret English chinoiserie from a perspective informed by postcolonial thinking and the artist?s Taiwanese background.

Emily will share her ongoing research on family photographs belonging to the Chinese community in Liverpool.
She will discuss the process and outcomes of ?Traces of Memory?, a collaborative research project with individuals from Liverpool?s East and South East Asian communities.
