DIRECTOR Ho Tzu Nyen Singapore, 30 min, color, Program Category: New Frontier Artist Event: New Frontier Artists |
The boundary between viewer and art dissolves in Ho Tzu Nyen’s sublime work, The Cloud of Unknowing.-i> Step inside and find a comfortable space in the room. On a screen, a narrative unfolds, set in a public housing complex in Singapore, where eight characters in eight apartments individually encounter a cloud, embodied both as a figure and a vaporous mist. The film is rear-projected and looped, integrating a complex soundtrack and synchronized steam machines to create a seamless and sublimely atmospheric sense of film/audience permeability. Ho Tzu Nyen creates art projects that have been presented in cinemas, galleries, and theatres, as well as on television. Most recently, he had a one-man exhibition at the Singapore Pavilion for the 54th Venice Biennale (2011). His first feature film, Here, premiered at the 41st Directors’ Fortnight at the Cannes International Film Festival in 2009. In the same year, his medium-length film, Earth, premiered at the 66th Venice Film Festival. |
