‘Glimpses’ is a video installation, presenting a series of changes in sunlight the artist encountered in her studio. The artist uses four white walls to form an obscure space; with only a frosted window on the wall, the sunlight being projected on it does not tell the audiences where it comes from – it might be from another place, a place unknown to all of us.
From dawn to dusk, the sunlight is a hint of time. By projecting the sunlight to a frosted window from an obscure space, the light and shadow embody a mirage – a mirage of the changes in sunlight and the lapses of time. Perhaps, the mirage is, in fact, another reality.
"The artist manages to capture the most mundane scene in her daily life and position it poetically in an exhibition space, which subtly draws our attention to the shifting light and shadows, the passage of time, and arouses our curiosity and imagination of the unseen behind the window."
