train song / 铁路之歌

16mm to digital, 3:30, 2022

Surrounding a hidden monument honoring Chinese immigrant workers next to Lang Station in Canyon Country, California, Train Song adopts reflective material to distort the image of the railroad, as an approach to conjure the unseen spirits from the seemingly tranquil landscape, calling for remembrance of Chinese American labors through a meditative audio-visual experience.

​

美国加州Lang Station旧址附近，多年之后，纪念碑已被忘却，华人铁路工的鬼魂依然扰动着看似宁静的铁路景观。
