Overview
"The Night is a three-channel video installation. It is based on a Holorhyme poem which is about the miscommunication between a couple while they are having an indirect conversation during the night. The conversation between reality and dream indicates the difference between verbal words and external meanings of the narrator. As the expression starts, the three channels show the different stages of the man and woman's understanding of each other's words and the scene goes from reality to dream and disintegrating into chaos." -- Abstract
