Inspired by my previous performance The Gaze, this short film tells the story of a performer who carried a broken mirror from the city to the deserted sea to post notices of missing people to find herself, trying to explore the concept of existentialism in the contemporary context.

“The majority of my work explores the intimate and confrontational relationship between the individual and the external world through a diverse medium, including painting, performance, moving image and interactive installation.” - Ruyi Ding
