For Taiwanese photographer Chien-Chi Chang, Double Happiness is an extremely personal project: ?For years, my folks had been bugging me to get married,? he says, ?and I wanted to show them how I view marriage in Taiwan. I?m not anti-marriage . . . but I had to do something to protest.? That was in 1994, and thus began Chang?s fascination with the Taiwanese wedding industry.

Over the past few years, through photographs, films and sculpture, as well as interventions in the gallery space, Lassry has developed a reputation for the wit and rigour of his investigations into how we perceive and conceive pictures. In Hong Kong, Lassry presented a varied body of work, including pictures, sculptures and a drawing, as well as perversely hybrid objects that radically question the distinction between these media.

This exploding subculture flourishes at convention centers, college dorms, private clubs, and in homes across the country.
