Snails in a Telephone Booth

Inspired by the poem A Snail in a Phone Box (2006) by Dr Eric Lui. The work synthesises new insights into visuals and poetry. What begins as a promise evolves into an exploration of the emotional links between poetry and the art of loving, eventually transforming into a hegemony of power. To recreate this message, director and animator Step C. developed a new surreal style that combines live action with animation, building a realm that blurs the boundaries between reality and dreams.

You Build a Home in My Mind

Translating and encapsulating the director's personal childhood experiences as well as past lived experiences, You build a home in my mind comprises of playground rides, the everyday scenery outside the window of the artist's studio, and unique, special objects recalled from memories—weaving together a melody that lures the viewers to roam and wander. As the boat navigates between reality and imagination, resembling a journey of constant loss and persistent search, the scenes become slightly different when they reappear, these scenes alluding to the repetitiveness and uncertainty of life.

Taikwun

The directors majored in MA Creative Media at the City University of Hong Kong. When directing TAIKWUN (2022), they used the photos taken in Tai Kwun as the material for animation creation. They are committed to exploring different animation possibilities from ordinary materials and textures, and at the same time, they also use animation to interpret and explore different urban characteristics. For the materials they have, they carry out creative interpretations on the basis of taking care of the historical significance of the materials themselves.
