- It’s mentioned that my performance was like confronts of bumps/interruptions against physical space, struggle between me and environment, fighting against physical confronts, like my photos inside the cupboard/under the bed. I agree. As I’m not the domination of the space, it’s full of difficulties to interact with it.
- Craig said it’s also pleasant at the same time. I don’t know why he felt that because my work has nothing to do with pleasure I think.
- Alison said I almost saw space as enemy. I won’t say it’s enemy because I actually want to be a part of it or dominate it.
- Michelle said it’s good the shooting was out of focus or moving sometimes. It’s not my intention and actually I’d prefer it to be focused and steady because it’s simply documentation of a performance rather than moving images.
- Craig said it’s like I was looking for a hidden door/a way out but I couldn’t see. It’s interesting. I didn’t think about it this way. But from the video where I am walking against the wall, it does look a bit like so.
- Michell said it’s like people lack of sight or with disabilities. It did have come to my mind that it’s a bit like the blind. I’d say that it’s shared on the dependency in some degrees.
- It’s mentioned that it’s like being dominated by the space. I agree.
- Michell mentioned about doing this in public space such as supermarket or gallery. I still think domestic space is better because it’s stranger that you’re not even the domination of your own place.
- I don’t know why Mengran uses slow motion. If it’s too show repetition, doesn’t fast-forward make more sense?
- For Yunqiu’s work, I actually don’t feel stillness because most of the elements are moving. The fact that the character is digital which is easily manipulated doesn’t show the effect of stillness well as real people.
- I don’t understand the meaning of Yutong’s work.
- I like Craig’s work although I didn’t know Elvis. To me, it feels the person is swallowed by a black hole gradually. I think the texts and the sound also work well to contribute to the atmosphere. It’s peaceful, quiet, unavoidable and a little depressed. Wanted to ask why the texts are like generated, then I thought it showed the uncertainness of one’s thoughts and difficulty of accurate expression.
