In this artist conversation, Sheung Yiu will be sharing some of his research and thoughts on the limits of technology and the way placeless-ness can be a condition of home. As an image-centric artist who often works with digital technology, Sheung will also be discussing the discourse of realism in computer science and issues and debates surrounding the (im)possibility of translation of the physical world into algorithms and codes. This also leads to a further question–What are some of the ways our perceptions or values related to looking have shifted how we think through ideas of belongings?
