• refine the descriptions of recent works *organise and restructure
• the result would be -->making a new (old one is here) self-directed research page (contains descriptions of my works and abstracts of my pervious notes)

Reversed Shots(my dyslexia also reflects in being bad at naming works), is a single-channel as well as two-channel video projection. It extracts the audiovisual content from the most dramatic segment of Roman Polanski’s film The Tenant. The original scene is been juxtaposed along with its reversed each single shot. The beginning and the end of each shot are been viewed at the same time, synchronously and continuously playing to the middle of move to the next. It is a experiment on how art and cinema affect on each other. The artistic approach combined with cinematic language (here I emphasize on the moving camera, spatial movement) add to the tensive watching experience.

sth here just remind myself:

Shot reverse shot + environment shot --> a work that I viewed in Piankothek der Moderne, check information later
