Underneath Another Moon 别有洞天

A dramatic change in the global power dynamic between countries and cultures took place during the colonial era. The Chinese, as well as the majority of the world population, were forced to abandon their ways of living and embrace a rigidly different imported lifestyle that was considered ‘modern’.
Underneath Another Moon propose a ‘what if’ scenario. What if there was a Third Opium War between China and Great Britain in 1880? And what if this time, China prevailed and set up Chinese concession districts in key cities around the world? How would “modernity” be different? Through a fictional modernity, this project challenges prejudices rooted in different ideologies.
