Yugua Island
Video Installation /Sound/Color/10:36min/ 4:3

Visuals/Sounds/Acting/Editing: Jingyi Zhang

Yugua Island (2024) is a video installation which narrate the story of sleeping/meditation/dreaming experience. Through projection, it combines the footage captured by her during a travel expedition with a sleep installation in the room, attempting to create a liminal space—exploring how the sensory world, which exists outside the objective world, weaves together illusions and real memories. At the same time, the video seeks to use minimalist visual language—one wall, one window, one bed, and two screens—to break away from the concept of linear time and space, creating a new temporal-spatial perspective that is multilayered, cyclic, and ambiguous. The video merges performance art, spatial installation, natural language, and game narrative. As the protagonist sleeps, the audience embarks on a "meditation," exploring the truth and illusion of an island sculpted by memories deep within the psyche.
