Artist Statement

Animation, 2015, 3’41”, ISEA2016 Hong Kong Open Sky Project Honorable Mention

A short looping film of animated technical aeroplane drawings describing flying either horizontally or vertically. I can adjust colours and axis according to the project surface. The aeroplanes appear to be moving their wings in enabling them to fly. This could be challenging but also provoke thoughts about the global and unstable times in which we live.
