Two Taiwanese XR works – one portraying the trap of greener pastures, the other framing the body as landscape – present novel takes on the here-and-now.

Craig Quintero’s Over the Rainbow depicts the precarious balance between desire and happiness, fantasy and familiarity. Tapping into the universal human tendency to aspire for circumstances beyond one’s own, the experience dramatises the pull of a thirst that can oftentimes be unquenchable.

Meanwhile, inspired by traditional Taiwanese folklore, Hsiao-mei Ho’s Nâ Tâu Tsí á (The Lost Limbo) | Sister Lin-Tou is premised on the body’s ability to preserve trauma – even after wounds have healed. Users enter the liminal space between existence and life, where Sister Lin-Tou resides; there, they encounter her body, now a universe unto itself.
