Muted Bridges documents five Hong Kong bridges once covered in political slogans, protest signs, and graffiti during the city's massive pro-democracy protests. Visual artist Yan Wai Yin offers an impressionistic study of inconspicuous absence, showcasing the structural deconstruction of these bridges and their surroundings. Once vibrant with the energy and heat of resistance, these urban structures now exude a cold aura. Yan's framing and composition invite viewers to look beyond the visible, creating a metaphor for a reality where history and politics cannot be directly visualized. The film serves as a meditation on landscape's effectiveness as a memory device. Through compositional assemblage, Yan evokes sensation, thought, matter, and memory, exploring how images mediate our relationships with and understanding of landscape.
