Aftermath (in memory of his body) [with Christopher Lau] / Hong Kong /2004 / 13’57 / 4:3
Aftermath investigates both the choreographer and video director’s point of view for the memory of a dying body. Taking the body as both the object and the subject, this piece abstracts the “time and space” of a dying body. The time travel of a spirit (or the soul) parallel to the “flash-back” happens in one’s mind right before his/her body dies.
Nil / Hong Kong / 2001 / 11' / 4:3
The beginning of Nil starts off with a strange silence amongst landscapes void of humanity… and yet little by little Hong Kong reveals its living citizens. With scattered sources of lights, dialogues without words, and silence, we see that people are the blood that gives life to the city.
