| Hand to hide.
Covering up my face with a transparent hand, see-through hand.
POV shot as transparent.
See-through Suburbia
See-through Suburbia with see-through vision.
Everything I see is translucent.
Hand as a clue to your time and space.
Peek someone through my see-trough hand.
Someone sees me through my hand at the same time.
Hand as a screen.
Exposing myself to public through my hand.
I am interested in blurring time and spatial distance in the contemproray
landscape and architecture with the element of occult, fable, and
animism. In this video I don’t even see my hand. I recorded
my hand alone 20 sec. later at the same position. The oscillation
between artificiality and reality has been a key issue in my work.
