Artist Statement:

Black Moves in Square is a framed mini video installation that continues the series focus in exploring natural transformation via digital imageries and the interplay between virtual and physical space. From a distance, the image displayed inside the black frame appears to be still; yet as the audience approaches closer, subtle and gradual transformations of the image appear and start to pull one into this deep and endless microcosmic world. The tiny ultra-resolution display commands and heightens the audience’s perceptual attention and experience, intensifying the infinitesimal complex transformations on the screen, playfully mirroring the original work with an inverted scale.
