I am writing this on the night before tomorrow’s opening of this video screening series’ final instalment presenting Lin Aojie, having thought about it for more than two weeks. Finally done with today’s installation, which took much longer than I had expected, I’m ready to pen down some thoughts on the process I experienced in planning and preparing for this series of exhibitions, specifically on Liang Yue’s part.
Let’s Put Up a Video Show…?
The idea of putting up a video art screening programme sprouted sometime last year, or even earlier in 2019. My former direct boss floated the idea of a video art screening for very practical reasons — it does not cost much once set up, and can continue running for a good period of time while we plan ahead.
More than a year later, it took a pandemic to come and her to leave the job before my ex-colleague and I managed to successfully propose a video art screening show to our bosses.
