Project: My birds...trash...the future--scene 1 and 2 (digital animation installation, 2004)
“My birds...” conflates and confuses two stories into one visual scene (the Chapter of Revelations from the King James bible and Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot,”) from the perspective of the 21 birds the bible dismisses as unclean and unworthy of praise as living beings. Using a unique digital image-making technique that combines sources from the internet, illegal DVDs, and books, “My birds...” functions like a fever-dream that collapses the ultimate story of the end (which is also a beginning) and the ultimate story of waiting (for the end, or the beginning).

作品简介:原创动画作品。
