ABOUT THE SERIES
"I don’t often share photographs of Taiwan—my homeland. In fact, I almost never do.
It’s been over twenty years since I lived there. I moved to Europe in 2003, and since then, Taiwan has become something in between: not fully here, not fully gone. A “1/2 Hometown.”
I miss it in quiet, unexpected ways—especially when I see the sea. That’s when the homesickness hits. Not always for a place, but for a feeling. For the version of home I’m not in.
When I look at the images I’ve taken of Taiwan over recent years, they feel almost like scenes from a movie—part memory, part fiction. I’m not sure how real they are anymore. All I know is, half of them come from longing..." – Simon Chang
