EndDance 終局舞曲
The universe was born out of nothing - random yet not-too-random. It dances; it spins; it becomes more and more magnificent... until homo sapiens appear on planet earth. This species always swing their dancing arms and legs, and love displaying their "wisdom" everywhere... and our Earth is gradually destroyed. Is this because human beings are all too selfishly arrogant? Or arrogantly selfish? Do we still have a way out?
Each shot in this video is the result of chemical reactions created by mixing acrylic paints with various liquids, including rapeseed oil, silicon oil, acetone, alcohol, alkaline, detergents, oatmilk and so on. For these images, I studied the science of water and oil, the density of various edible and mineral oils, the viscosity of different types of paints, and the magical recipes of acids, bases and volatiles! (I felt tipsy several nights after experimenting with my colour recipes!)
宇宙無中生有,隨意而有序,越舞越美麗⋯⋯直至人類在地球出現。這個品種時常手舞足蹈,最愛到處展示「智慧」,逐漸把整個地球摧毁。這是因為地球人自私自利?自以為是?我們還有出路嗎?
影片中每一個小片段,都是塑膠彩和各種液體混合後產生的化學變化,包括菜籽油、硅油、丙酮、鹼水、清潔劑、酒精、燕麥奶等等。為了這些影像,我研究了水和油的科學、各種食油和礦物油的密度,不同顏料的黏度,還有酸、鹼和揮發性液體的魔法!(有幾晚完成拍攝實驗後,我有酒醉的感覺!哈哈!)
