SOFT HAUNTING

Rooted in personal & collective memories, Soft Haunting investigates the feeling of losing oneself through the lived experience of chronic illness.

SOFT HAUNTING follows the quiet confession of a doppelgänger, moving through fragments of memory and lived testimonies, tracing how identity is formed, disrupted, and haunted.

Informed by Spinoza, modern psychoanalysis,
and neurobiology, SOFT HAUNTING asks:

Why do we no longer feel like ourselves? How do we live with our own erosion?
And what happens next?

SOFT HAUNTING offers a bridge between the academic and the storytelling through the documentation of JINGYI’s real-life journey and interviews with the global disabled community.

“Having been with chronic illness since 12, I have spent more than half of my life in agony not from the physical pain, but from an unknown horror that something was slowly but surely replacing who I am.”
