Already It Is Dusk from the “Crossover Photography” section by the film photographer and director Yu Likwai (b.1966. Hong Kong).
Curated by Hai Jie, the exhibition Already it is dusk seeks to transport lost souls into a dream realm through photographs and GIFs derived from film production. The exhibition is not only a time of obscurity but also a suspended state of identity. The exhibition showcases the artist’s works in three parts: The first part presents images of a pedestrian bridge in the Kwun Tong District of Hong Kong, a subject he has long admired. The second part consists of composite photographs that extend his aesthetics from filmmaking, combining spaces and people. The third part includes classic scenes from his films, intertwined with looping GIF images carrying the memories of an era.
