(Includes all Memor ongoing exhibitions):

This exhibition is dedicated to those who chose to stay—particularly international students and immigrants who decided to build their lives far from their countries.

Incities like New York, London, Vancouver, Berlin, and Sydney, staying is rarely easy. It is a decision shaped by cultural dislocation, family separation, and the constant act of self-reinvention. Behind each quiet choice lies a story of resilience, uncertainty, and hope.

Through performance, moving images, soundscapes, installations, and words, The Ones Who Stay brings their lived experiences to the forefront—not as background voices, but as central protagonists in the global narrative of migration and belonging.

Premiered at the Memor Museum in New York, this exhibition will continue to travel—to cities where these stories are still unfolding.

Visibility is not ornament. It is a form of power.

海上生明月，天涯共此时。

千年前张九龄写下的那轮明月，如今依然挂在纽约、伦敦、温哥华、柏林、悉尼的夜空，洒落在无数“留下来的人”肩头。

留学与移民，不只是一次决定，而是持续多年的选择与坚持，是签证背后的等待，是语言与文化的夹缝，是家被拆解后重新拼接的模样。

他们的故事，曾被淹没在边缘，却值得被看见。

这是一场为“留下来的人”而设的展览，也是一场面向全球游子的邀请。展览通过表演、影像、绘画、装置、声音与文字，记录他们的挣扎与柔软，孤独与勇气。

首展于纽约 Memor Museum，我们期待将它带往更多城市，让这轮穿越国界的明月，照亮每一个仍在努力留下来的人。
