WHEREABOUTS ZONE is an exhibition project, which aims to call attention to street sleepers who have no meal a day and nowhere to go in the day time and nowhere to settle at night, and even have no moral support. Because of their unstable life, WHEREABOUTS ZONE is to express their wandering life. In the project, allowing visitors to feel the estrangement from the street sleepers, a plastic membrane was adopted to separate the audience from the exhibits in the hope that this design will arouse thinking about the street sleepers.

The Chinese name of the whereabouts zone is Wuzhuo, which means no whereabouts. The exhibition can exist in any public area of the city and can be divided three parts. The first part is an introduction to the street sleepers and the daily necessities of the homeless that displayed on the one side of the plastic membrane to conveying the living conditions of the street sleepers hidden in the city and the close distance between us and the street sleepers that anyone can easily cross over. The second part is to allow the audience to experience the ubiquitous reality of street sleepers through the AR technique and feel the existence of this group more truly. In the last part, the audience can support street sleepers by purchasing related derivatives in the vending machine. These items are necessities for them to sleep on the streets. Every time if the audience purchases an item, the street sleepers will receive a donation of the same item, and all the earnings will be donated to the organization that helps the street sleepers so that the organization can provide professional help to the street sleepers.

无着是一个展览形式的项目，它旨在呼吁人们关注并且更加了解露宿群体。没有着落对于露宿者而言，可以是一顿饭没有着落，可以是白天无处可去，可以是晚上无家可归，但更重要的是精神没有归宿。他们的生活是极不稳定的，“无着”就是表达他们种漂泊的状态。项目通过将观众和展览主体用一层塑料膜隔开，让参观者感受到与流浪人群之间的隔阂，从而唤起参观者的个人对露宿者群体的主观思考。

whereabouts zone的中文项目名“无着”就是没有着落的意思。“无着”展览的展示地点是流动的，它可以存在在城市的任何公共区域，展览整体分为三个部分：第一部分是对露宿者的简介，并将流浪者日常用品放在薄膜内展示出来，除了向观众传达露宿者隐秘与城市间的生活状态之外，还向观众传达我们与露宿者的距离可能只有薄薄一层膜，任何人都可能轻易跨越的概念。第二部分观众可以通过AR来体验露宿者无处不在的真实感，更加真切地感受到这个群体的存在。第三部分观众则可以通过购买贩售机内的相关衍生品来支持露宿者。这些物品都是他们露宿街头的必需品。观众每购买一件物品，露宿者就会接收到一份相同的物品的捐赠，贩售机的所有收益也将捐赠给帮助露宿者的机构，让他们为露宿者提供专业的帮助。
