Hi! I’m Victoria. I’m a Hongkonger and UK-based student filmmaker, theatre-maker, photographer, and actor. I am currently a Third-year studying Film and Theatre at Lancaster University. As an Asian, queer and disabled artist, my work revolves around my experience of the world.
My practice inevitably consolidates theories and inspirations from both mediums I study. My subjective perception of life influences my work, particularly heightening my interest in experimental filmmaking. My art is human, messy, tender, rhythmic, and fragmented. “Human” seems to be an obvious descriptor but what that means is that I focus on the mundane, microscopic details of everyday life, often framing moments in experimental ways.
My work intends to make viewers unflinchingly confront their perception, and illustrate my unique experience.
Follow in the eyes of Victoria, an experimental filmmaker, in an exploration of a series of moments over four comfortable winter days. From coffee dates, to movie nights, AS YOU ARE takes a magnifying glass into Victoria’s experience of memory loss. Through a series of broken images, snippets of conversations, and a fleeting sense of temporality, this experimental short illustrates the uncertain nature of perception through practical lens manipulation, and presents a relentless questioning of the validity of memory.
