This series of photographs, Here or There?, records the installation exhibited at the Shanghai Biennale in 2002, in which Lin Tianmiao created mannequins with sophisticated costumes made from fabric and human hair. These mannequins were set against a video back-drop made by her husband, the video artist Wang Gongxin. The mannequins reflect her memories of intimate moments from her life, such as pregnancy and childbirth. Their positioning in front of moving images of desolate and dreamlike landscapes creates a striking surrealist effect.

這組攝影作品《這裏?或那裏?》,記錄了林天苗於2002年上海雙年展上展出的藝術裝置,她以布料和人的頭髮創作出設計細膩的服裝,穿在人體模特兒身上。她的丈夫兼影像藝術家王功新,為這些人體模特兒製作影像背景。人體模特兒反映林天苗對私密時刻的回憶,包括以往懷孕和分娩的經歷。在動態影像前被置於荒涼夢幻之地的模特兒,不期然創造出驚撼的超現實效果。
