Film


I dream the moon and I dream my eyes perceiving the moon.
I have dreamed the morning and evening of the first day.
[…]
I have dreamed geometry.
I have dreamed point, line, plane and volume.
I have dreamed yellow, blue, and red.
[…]
I have dreamed the whole of yesterday.
I may be dreaming of having dreamed.
Jorge Luis Borges

"Their heads were in darkness and the light from the screen was hitting their faces, but for them, darkness and light were the same.
They were listening to an animated film."
Alice in Wonderland.

Yunyi Zhu


Yunyi Zhu is a Chinese artist whose practice questions memory and perception. He currently lives and works in Lille. Graduated from Tsinghua University Academy of Fine Arts, Esä and Le Fresnoy -- Studio national des arts contemporains, he works based on the combination of a series of personal experiences relating to the uses of some of our underestimated senses in the field of art, such as touch, and the questions of memory. He transforms these experiences and memories into works by various approaches of mediums.
