Separated Twins: Two Paths of Growing Up Across Borders | 被分开的双胞胎:跨越国界的两种成长轨迹
A pair of twins from China, separated in early childhood by circumstance, were adopted into two different countries — the United States and Norway.
From that moment on, they grew up in distinct cultures, languages, and family environments. Starting from the same beginning, their lives unfolded along two separate paths.
Six years is enough time for a child to move from infancy towards an early understanding of the world. In different lands, their ways of living, expressing themselves, and even perceiving the world have gradually taken shape in different ways.
This visual record allows us to witness how two lives, sharing the same biological roots, can develop in such varied directions when placed in different cultural and social contexts.
Yet beyond these differences, there may still exist a deeper connection—one that continues quietly over time.
Every story of adoption and growing up is unique. And behind each story lies an ongoing exploration of identity, belonging, and the connections that bind us together.

这段影像记录,让人们得以看见:当血缘相同的生命,置于不同的文化与环境中,成长会呈现出怎样的差异与可能。
但在这些差异之外,也许仍有某种更深的连接,在时间之中持续存在。
关于收养与成长,每一个故事都独一无二。而在这些故事背后,是关于身份、归属与人与人之间联系的持续探问。
