'Show Me How You Live' (告诉我你的生活是怎样的)是中国广州美术学院和比利时Antwerp皇家美术学院之间的一个网络项目。大约60位学生通过摄影媒介来交流，而不知道交流对方和他们的文化习俗。两个为一组的学生以视觉交流，从一个人到另一个人轮流进行。最初他们被鼓励去对他们的搭档感到好奇。他们出示一些图像，为了得到对方的响应。如果一个学生给对方展示一吃早餐的图片，他/她就在邀请对方也展示一张类似的图片或者以其他视觉方式来回应。最后，'Show Me How You Live'旨在让参与者（或观众）思考文化身份特征，视觉交流和跨文化理解。
这个项目由Antwerp皇家美术学院的摄影专业教授Bert Danckaert和广州美术学院的刘教授共同发起，并由广州美术学院的摄影专业研究生孙濛协助完成。

 

'Show Me How You Live' is an internet project between GAFA (Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, China) and KASKA (Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, Belgium). About 60 students communicate through the medium of photography without knowing their counterpart or their culture.  The students are divided in pairs with the visual communication going from just one person to the other.  Initially they are encouraged to be curious about their partners.  They post images with the object of getting their partners' to respond. So if one student shows the other an image of breakfast, he/she invites the other to show a similar image or to reply to it visually in some other way.  In the end 'Show Me How You Live' aims to have participants (and viewers) reflect on cultural identity, visual communication and intercultural understanding. 
The project was initiated by Bert Danckaert, Professor of Photography at KASKA in collaboration with Professor Liu from GAFA with the assistance of Sunmeng, a postgraduate student at GAFA.
