  • In some seconds 轉眼

    2009 Dual screen video installation
    HDV/ Color/ 16’44”, 16’41”
    A video is shot on a bus towards the street on passers-by.

    In a populous city, a specific person could only be captured in a random manner whenever the bus stops, not before or after, and just for some seconds.

    I chose a lane I travel weekly for shooting. The footages, taken in different time are sequenced into two 16:9 videos with slightly different duration and order, being back projected on two screens facing each other. In such way they are hung to create a narrow “moving” space/path to embrace the audience in between, and an experimental cinematic space for the encounter between the audience and the people in each of the two screens.

    在繁囂的城市裏,坐在巴士上想遇上車外街上的某路人,只能隨巴士慢駛或停下,分秒不差,也只能維持數秒。

    我選擇了經常乘搭的巴士路線進行拍攝,將拍攝得來的影片剪輯成兩段長度和次序接近的16:9錄像,背投到兩個面對面的屏幕上,造成一個狹窄的“流動”空間/通道將觀眾包圍,讓觀眾及兩個屏幕中的人在這個實驗電影空間中各自相遇。

    Flow of time and spatial transformation.
    A long take in the platform of an MTR (metro) station at the doors with people going in and out.

    Time goes fast and slow. Space are integrated and separated, dense and loose.
    The relation of time and space interact with people weaves a symphony of city life.
