In 2017, Hong Kong marked 20 years since its handover to China, halfway through the planned 40-year ‘one country, two systems’ transition. Taiwan was once Imperial China, then Formosa; now it is the Republic of China (ROC), located just off the coast of the People's Republic of China (PRC). Multiple exposures of street scenes distort space and place, creating a fluid sense of the impermanence and transition of two states somewhere between China and not China.
