“I explore reconstructed autobiographical narratives about my family history, transgenerational memory, and the Chinese diaspora. By using the family album as a transnational narrative framework, I weave vernacular pictures with contemporary photography. The family pictures become an interpretive tool to explore the effects of matrilineal diasporic experiences and constructions of maternal identity. I am interested in what is not said: the missing or loss, and the silence that occurs from the burden of pain or oppression as a part of the Chinese diasporic experience.” —Lianne Milton
