Haunting Images: Live Cinema by Lim Giong(HKAFF)

Lim Giong, recipient of the prestigious 20th National Awards of Art in Taiwan, will perform in a live cinema event that rethinks the relationship between sound and image. The performance features Michael Rogge’s short films “Rain” (1952) and “Sunrise” (1953); and Brooklyn-based artist Simon Liu’s 16mm dual projection work “Harbour City” (2016). This collaborative live event with Lim Giong revisits Hong Kong and Taiwan’s urban environments of private and collective memory, offering a fresh reimagination of water and harbour, light and shadow, movement and ritual.
