Abstract
The Taste of Missing: Phoebe Man Solo Exhibition
"Seen/Unseen Hong Kong" is a video installation that responds to Andrei Tarkovsky's 1983 film "Nostalghia". She was particularly impressed by the last section of the film, where the protagonist walks through the hot springs holding a candle. It is said that if the candle does not burn out, the world can be saved. Candlelight can symbolize light, wisdom, remembrance, the passage of time and hope. Phoebe Man used a video installation to respond to this part of the film. There were different reflective objects in front of the projected image, which were both an obstacle and a help. The image was obscured, and more light was reflected at the same time.

想念的滋味:文晶瑩個展
<再/見香港 >是一個錄像裝置,回應塔可夫斯基(Andrei Tarkovsky)1983 創作「懷鄉」(Nostalghia)。主角拿著蠟燭走過温泉,據說如果蠟燭不熄滅,便可以拯救世界。燭光是一個有意義的意象,它可以象徵光明、智慧、紀念、時間的流逝與希望。文晶瑩用錄像裝置回應這一片段,投射的影像前面有不同的反射物件,是一種阻礙,亦是一種幫助。影像被掩蔽,亦同時折射出更多光芒。
