The video is the exploration of writing and drawing, a comparative study on image and text. It was commissioned by the Hong Kong Institute of Contemporary Culture for Video Essay-Works of a Cross-disciplinary Creative Project. For Some Reasons starts with the exploration of the figure of speech. Every Chinese character is a face; each face has a story. Put the faces together you end up having another story. As a reaction on public demonstrations the title of the work copies a phrase that has been deliberately used by Hong Kong government officials, when talking about the recently issued national security laws in China’s Special Administration Zone. The text of the story responds to the new controversially discussed Article 23, mixing with the hot topics of Hong Kong People. The pictures are made up of animated still frame pictures that resemble the Chinese still frame character.
