Passed Scenes
過境
“Passed Scenes” is an experimental film co-created by the artist and generative AI. The footage consists of images either transformed from archival photographs or fully generated by AI.
“Passed Scenes” traces the artist’s first and most recent border crossings between Hong Kong and mainland China — two memories divided by four decades. Begin with a black-and-white landscape photograph from the UK National Archives taken in 1989, when the British colonial government dispatched officials to demarcate the border between Hong Kong and China.
“Three layers of landscape — the hill, the Shenzhen River, and the valley — respectively represent China, the border, and Hong Kong.”
Forty years on, memory and border fade together into the same haze.
《過境》是一部由藝術家與人工智能共同創作的實驗電影。影片素材由轉化自檔案照片的圖像或完全由AI生成的圖像組成。
作品追溯了藝術家第一次(1986年)和最近一次(2025年)跨越香港與中國大陸的邊界——這兩段記憶相隔了四十年。影片開始於一張來自英國國家檔案館的黑白風景照片,拍攝於1989年,當時英國殖民政府派遣官員劃定香港與中國之間的邊界。
「三層風景——山丘、深圳河和谷地——分別代表中國、邊界和香港。」
四十年後,記憶與邊界一起漸漸模糊成同樣的霧靄。
