Elements – A Projection Act: A Projection Act

Research output: Creative and Literary Works in Non - textual FormRGC 44 - Performance and participation in exhibits

Abstract

Elements – A Projection Act utilizes moving image to connect, document and transmit the vanishing materiality and emotional states of our urban lives. At the turn of 2018, the artists, Zimu Zhang and Zheng Lu Xinyuan, invited young people working in the urban village of Guangzhou under precarious conditions to share their own shifting subtle experiences about urban space. The artists collected their everyday mobile phone footage and projected at the half-torn walls of a formal urban-village undergoing reconstruction and gentrification. The projection act juxtaposed the intimately mundane with the officially declared-as-disposable city ruins. It is a phantom archive of the vanishing city space.
