Luo Jian, Director,

About

This video piece directed by Luo Jian features a sequence of scenes viewed through a circular wooden porthole frame. The visual journey moves from a green signal light outside, to a crowded transit interior filled with seated passengers, and finally to a person holding an instant camera up to the round aperture. The framing creates a voyeuristic and intimate perspective, emphasized by warm wood tones and nostalgic colour grading. The camera movement and framing highlight textures of polished wood, brass screw fittings, and the circular vignette effect.
