My father was born in Hong Kong and my mother was in Mainland

China (her parents were born in Hong Kong but le! in order to escape

from the Japanese occupation during World War II). Therefore, my

mother was not allowed to come to Hong Kong and live with us until

1998 due to immigration and visitor rules. Hong Kong was a British

colony before 1997. Permanent residents of the city could apply for the

British National (Overseas) passport before, and the Hong Kong Special

Administrative Region passport a!er the handover. However, having

the BNO passport does not grant the right of abode or the permission to

work in the UK. Under these situations, I started to question my identity

and our freedom of choosing where to live and work. We live under the

same sky; the world only has one sky; every human should have the

same equal rights. The sky in square canvas represents the unknown

and infinity, but is bounded by an invisible stretcher like national

borders and rules.
