Summer Memoirs
film.003
Inspired by two vintage gelatin silver prints I encountered at MoMA, I created this video to capture the emotion and voice that I experienced while viewing.
“ These were memories in black and white, yet they are undoubtedly unique, lively, and colorful. Because they represent the capture of a brief moment in time, and they had traveled a long way through time to tell us the silent stories of the past.
These photos presented me a lot of information and feelings. I think the most important thing is to recreate characters of the photos -- light, shadows, color, contrast, and movement. I wish to create a video that can tell the story of the present time New York, but in the same style as the photos -- striking, raw, and spontaneously authentic. I also think it would be interesting to see what has changed over time and what’s still the same.”
