A game of montage art, Doors Medley is a re-mix of two existing work of mine – Door Game (2005, 26m) and Door Games Window Frames (2012, 11m30s), which explores visual mannerisms and formulaic structures of film melodrama of the 1960s in Hong Kong. Doors Medley highlights specifically gender paradigms embedded in popular culture. From anthropology’s viewpoint, we have created drama and we also reenacted the drama we create. Popular cultural texts fine-tune specific course of events with narrative logic, which we fervently imitate to act out our daily roles. Isolated narrative fragments, as they are subject to free combination, reveal their hidden predispositions.

《重重門。門對門。》是我另一個的個蒙太奇創作遊戲。我把兩個已發表的錄像作品-2005年的《戲門》(26’)和2012年的《景框戲門》(11’30”) -重新整合,從上世紀六十年代港產文藝片的板斧,進一步鑽進性別模式在視覺風格和敘事結構上可尋的蛛絲馬跡。我們創造戲劇,提煉出有特定走勢的劇情…。到頭來,又契而不捨的模仿著,作為上演每天生活的 綱領。似是而非的劇力把我們吸進情愛道義的門內,塑造了我們日常生活的倫理。透過蒙太奇的遊戲,我希望重新打開看似單純的每一個鏡頭;臉上一顰一笑、門窗一開一關、人情道義… 向我們展示的會是甚麼?
