LOOPED:
This project is a 2-channel experimental film based on the central Buddhist idea, reincarnation, and the story Butterfly Dream by a famous Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi. Although the film doesn’t begin with the same sequence, channel 1 and channel 2 eventually culminate into the same image at the end of their sequences. In other words, the structure of channel 2 is an expanded version derived from channel 1, and the two channels share a cyclical time structure. This type of time structure expresses the limitlessness beyond the binary differentiation between dream and reality, death and life, and inside and outside.
