《透明乌托邦》

Work description:

This epidemic is like a nightmare in a long night.

When most people gradually escaped from this nightmare and resumed their normal lives, those who were involved in the center of the disaster have been slow to wake up.

The suffering experienced in this catastrophe has caused them to suffer from mental illnesses such as post-traumatic stress disorder.

Although the appearance was as usual, the painful memory always tormented them like a nightmare. They seem to be separated from the real world by a layer of transparent glass. Behind the glass, hidden their unknown emotions.

On the basis of this concept, I imaged the symptoms of these groups and divided them into five dream domains to form a huge utopia.


Tutor's comment:

Each of the five fragments in the work can see the shadow of reality, but it is not reality. This is very consistent with the characteristics of "dreams". The video successfully creates a slightly pathological sense of loneliness and self-enclosure , The pictures of each scene are more delicate, and the content has a certain philosophical space. The fly in the ointment is that the "epidemic situation" in the author's theme is not reflected in the video, which is a little far-fetched.
