Video stills from 金門大橋的日落 Sunset at Kinmen Bridge, Olivia Koh
'... Her work Sunset at Kinmen Bridge originates from her visit to her grandfather's hometown. Kinmen, once the most fiercely contested front line between the Nationalists and Communists, has seen its former military outposts and historical relics transmogrified into Instagrammable spots. One evening on a beach, the artist encountered a film crew shooting a highly romantic scene, and behind them were Little Kinmen (Lieyu) and Xiamen seen facing each other across the sea. The landscape, once scarred by crossfire, has already been smoothed out into a beach defined by image-consumption culture. However, the maritime specters continue to hover, shrouding the shores like a persistent fog.'
