Invisible Visible 未见之见, 2026

A half-hour documentary short film, Invisible Visible 未见之见, tells my story of facing censorship while producing a new media artwork exposing the limits of internet freedo, FIREWALL Cafe.

I first exhibited my interactive artwork, FIREWALL Cafe in 2016. This web-based project invites netizens around the world to conduct side-by-side comparisons of image search results from Google in the U.S. with Baidu in China.

When Chinese officials intervened to prevent a Chinese human rights lawyer from participating in my inaugural exhibition of this project in Chinatown, New York City, FIREWALL Cafe attained media attention and critical art prominence. My documentary traces the battle against censorship abroad with curators, journalists, hacktivists and writers raising awareness of China’s growing international influence in geopolitics, technology, and cultural dissemination

This film is available for screenings and festivals, so please contact me with any interest.
