| Description: |
Co-commissioned by M+ and Art Basel, Yang Fudong’s new work Sparrow on the Sea is described by the artist as a site-specific ‘architectural film’. Shot in Hong Kong, the black-and-white film weaves together scenes from seaside villages and nocturnal city streets. By referencing visual motifs and textures from classic Hong Kong cinema of the 1970s to the 1990s, Yang aims to evoke a sense of nostalgic familiarity.
