Project Detail

GONG

Synopsis

Emblematically deconstructed, the analogue rhythm of the Gong Man is soon disrupted by audio arrhythmia, as if the heart has skipped a beat and trying to make up for lost time. A cacophony of sound along with a blend of colours lose their focus and slowly drifts into sonic pleasure.

A well known gothic horror film is re-appropriated, re-animated and given another life via the filmmaker's 16mm laboratory. Visually hovering between the conscious and unconscious, the film’s frame lines shift between lucid imagery and unfocused narrative.
