The reading space is a digital platform inspired by Chinese dating corners—where parents gather to arrange marriages for their adult children, often without the children being present. This project reflects on generational conflict and the absence of young voices.

The book, Once Upon A Shadow: The Dual Lives of Fairy Tales, explores the evolution of dark fairy tales through a three-part structure. Theme A compares different versions of classic tales with reflective commentary. Theme B compiles academic texts on the genre’s darker dimensions. Theme C features an interview discussing how fairy tales are being reimagined for adults in contemporary media.
