时间重映射 ——长春 Original

The artwork centers on the Changchun Route 54 Tram, with the theme "Echoes of Time and Flow of Culture." It aims to explore the deep connection between objects and historical culture through visual art. Since its inception in 1941, the tram has witnessed periods including the Manchukuo era, the War of Liberation, the construction of New China, and the Reform and Opening-up. It has always been a witness to the city's development and a symbol of emotional memory for its citizens.

The film combines three techniques: TD point cloud technology, live-action footage, and AI. The point cloud technology digitizes the tram, presenting an abstract yet authentic "object." Live-action footage shows the current state of the city. AI recreates historical scenes. The switching and integration of these three create a sense of urban change and contrast. At the same time, through "collage art," the tram's windows are "cut out" and replaced with live-action or past images, blurring the boundaries between history and reality, truth and illusion. The tram, as a "cultural symbol" of Changchun, expresses the philosophy of time moving forward and history flowing continuously.
