Blue Sun Live cinema performance Premiere at International Film Festival Rotterdam 2025 Developed through SPECTRAL: Spatial, Performative & Expanded Cinematics – Transnational Research at Artist-run Labs, at Filmwerkplaats, Rotterdam In Taiwanese novelist Tong Wei-Ger’s short story, the narrator describes the blue sun amid a series of strange perception. The blue sun hangs high in the mountain where the mining incidents took numerous lives in the mid-1980s. Following the literary metaphor, Blue Sun sets out to document the post-mining and post-disastrous villages in Northern Taipei. With short film and performance, the project attempts to translate the lingering energy in the landscape from literature to other artistic mediums.

Flame Gazing 16mm transferred to digital , digital sound , 8mins Flame Gazing re-composes scenes from two funerals held by a big family in Taipei, based on the home videos recorded in 1993 and 2001. The re-editing principle of the film threads together clues to the passage of time: the elder who had attended the funeral of the young lady passed away eight years later. In selecting and transforming a huge amount of video footage into hand-processed 16mm film, I searched for both the affective loads and documentary evidences in these images. With both accidental and non-accidental solarization, the reassemblage of materials becomes a time-traveling experience through local rituals, gestures, faces, and remembrance of family members. Such process of rediscovery offers something to contemplate upon, or to“guan huo” (Taiwanese Mandarin), literally staring at the fire. Coincidentally, fire is a recurring element in these funerals.
