The Cyan Garden considers the limits of giving form to the past which cannot cohere into memory. In part filmed on ‘Lucky’, a discontinued b&w 16mm film reel stock intended for military aerial detection, the moving image revolves around a radio station that was not supposed to be detected and an Airbnb apartment ‘The Lover’, run by Peng’s friend in their hometown. Between 1969 and 1981, a Malaysian communist underground radio in exile Voice of the Malayan Revolution resided in what is now soon to be a resort. Projected on a holographic screen producing shadowy after-images, the work flickers between radio static, bursts of archival jingles, ruins of the radio station and choreographed scenes of the Airbnb apartment decorated in imagined ‘Southeast Asian’ style. Contemplating on a revolution’s fraught relation to emancipation, The Cyan Garden interweaves visual notes on revolutionary remains and stifled romance and inability to remember ‘rightly’ as pop songs lull in the background.
