MOMENT
The Present employs a window frame and digital screen as its vessels: the window serves as both boundary and passageway for consciousness. Five segments of imagery—a lightbox in nightfall, sky and trees, a windowsill and onions, the exterior wall of a residential building, leaves and watermarks on glass after a downpour—alternate in presentation through the migration and reverberation of 5.1 surround sound. Sound and image are deliberately misaligned, gently dislocating viewers from familiar life fragments and placing them simultaneously in different spaces. For me, daily life is not mere background but an engine generating meaning.I juxtapose and magnify moments polished by time, making them illuminate each other: the lingering glow of advertising slogans, the crevices of wind, the residual warmth of rain, and the hum of machinery weave a dense web of the present. The work offers no answers, inviting only a contemplative gaze—like a deep breath. In the back-and-forth between inside and outside the window, we hear how“this moment” is born, fades away, and returns to the palm of our hand.
