Unresolved Talk

Inspired by the unspoken tension between Taiwan and mainland China, this project reimagines the round table, a shared symbol of reunion, as a site of division. Traditionally centered on sharing food and the cyclical flow of social interaction among loved ones, this table features a modified lazy Susan designed to prevent items from reaching the opposing side. This work invites diverse  audiences to project their own perspectives onto the experience. It reflects how individuals are shaped by forces beyond their control and the harmony much like the unreachable side of the table is difficult to attain.
