Guanyu Xu: Contact Sheet investigates the complex intersections of surveillance, familial diaspora, identity, and architectural space. Drawing upon photographic interventions and intimate spatial documentation, the work interrogates how personal history and queer identity navigate domestic and public borders.
The publication layers surveillance aesthetics with intimate portraiture, exploring the tensions of looking and being seen across disparate cultural landscapes. Through careful composition and conceptual framing, Xu constructs a visual dialogue between interior refuge and external scrutiny.
