When the Doors Opens illustrates the flow of time and spatial transformation. With a long take of the platform doors at an MTR station with passengers going in and out of a train, time qoes fast and slowly while space is integrated and separated, dense and loose. The relation of time and space interacting with people weaves a symphony of city life.

作品以時間流動和空間轉化為主題,利用長鏡頭拍攝地下鐵月台幕門前的人來人往，表達時間的快慢交接和空間結合及散落的時密時疏，借人潮與時空的交錯編織出一曲城市 生活的交響樂。

Through noticing and documenting overlooked detailsin everyday life, the artist tries to retain his pace and time so as to understand himself better. In such way he transforms his trivia into psychological experience. This experience reminds the audience of their own daily experience and questions certain social values in life.
