mirage

synopsis

By merging mirror space and the densely packed skyscrapers of Central, this film captures a surreal perspective of the business centre of Hong Kong. Looking through the reflections of glass and mirror, while both presented in a faintly discernible and fragmented way, the archetype of a bustling business district is present, yet the quiet of the night takes over every cycle. Using the geometric shape of mirrors and buildings as a basis, Central is exhibited in a kaleidoscopic composition, always shifting but never loses its distinctive edges. Objects found in Central are moving in sync with the rhythm of the music, passing through layers of glass and light. With Central being in close proximity to Victoria Harbour, the change of pace is implied with images and sound of the sea.
