M Goi Jau Lok

DATE
2018

M Goi Jau Lok began with a commission to make an image-based work about Shenzhen. Bai retraced a minibus route he had often travelled as a child, letting personal memory guide where he stopped to photograph and record. Roads, shopping centres, and public facilities along the route had been replaced or renamed, bringing remembered places into contact with the present-day city. Photographs, moving images, and field recordings are brought together in suspended lightboxes and video displays. Moving among them, viewers encounter the city in fragments, separated and partly obscured.
