I’m showing you how big the sky is chronicles over a decade of correspondence between Martina Bacigalupo and her former nanny, Chiou Taur Wu. After a lifetime of hard work devoted to others, Chiou finally allows herself to live life to the full upon her retirement. At the age of 70, she returned to Taiwan, determined to live life entirely on her own terms by embarking on a series of organized tours across Asia. She shares with Martina hundreds of delightfully quirky snapshots via Skype and WhatsApp. This witty and moving projects celebrates an extraordinary life force and the deeply personal bond between the artist and her nanny.
