就著暗室中的殘餘光芒,由觀眾冒充的戲子,以齒輪、游絲、擒縱器等妝扮著自己藏於黑暗中的面相,化為虛空霧氣中的巨大臉譜;而這名為戲曲的鏡子,在她無聲開闔的口氣中,植入在荒煙蔓草中,早已化為白骨的才子名家,在綺夢中的璇霓吟唱。

Immersing in the residual light of the shadowy room, the actors who masqueraded by the audience applies gears, hair springs and escape wheels to make up their obscure faces in the dark. This make-up transforms into massive Chinese opera’s facial mask suspended in the midair. As the actors opens and closes their mouth silently, the lips of the mask are triggered and the recorded voice of long-passed ancient singers starting to play.
