1999,上海,物是人非(The same -yet changed)

在屋子中央,一个宽大的环从天花板吊下来。当我们接近时,我们能观察到其他人的脚在里面走动。这个环悬挂得足够高以至于任何人都可以从下面进入到当中。

一个十米长一米高的360度的全景画,带我们进入一个看似虚假在黎明时的上海工业港口的场景。一个跳舞的女孩以一些古怪的动作令这个场景生动起来。

转而看整个画面,我们自己开始变成了一个站在这个环形的充满幻想的舞台上的小丑。

Centered in a room, a large hoop is hanging from the ceiling. As we approach, we can observe other peoples’ feet walking around in it. The hoop is suspended high enough for anyone to pass under inside.

A 10 meter long and 1 meter tall, 360o panorama takes us to a somehow unreal site in Shanghai’s industrial harbor area at dawn. A dancing girl is animating the scene with grotesque gestures.

Turning to see the entire picture we ourselves become the clown on the stage of this circular illusion.
