Adam Wong - Video Art

I have always had an obsession with film ever since I was little. From animation to rom-com to sci-fi and everything in between, film has really shaped a lot of who I am and what I aspire to accomplish. As I mature, my taste in film varies and become more and more niche-like, with my favorites always being a little obscure or off-the-beaten-path of the "normal movie-goers must-see". With my favorite directors being Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsesse, Paul Thomas Anderson, Christopher Nolan, David Lynch, Stanley Kubrick, Yorgos Lathimos, Wes Anderson, Bong Joon-Ho, Ari Aster, Lars Von Trier, Robert Eggers, and Andrei Tarkovsky, just to name a few (and of course completely unordered), one can tell I fancy the chaotic, intense and strange.

In my video art, I use what I learned from some of my favorite films, shows and people in show business as well as my own creativity, intuition, and personal style developed through years of research and self-definition.

Love (2019)

Love (2019) comes off as something bittersweet. Love is a feeling people have when they are emotionally infatuated with something, but is it just love they are feeling?

Is there more? Was there ever? Is this really love?

The short film, compiled of different scenes from other films, that helps craft the essence of the other feelings outside of love that are unsaid and uncontrollable, and yet so relatable, present and powerful. Dig deep.

Eternal (2019)

Look into the light, embrace the dark and everything in between. Eternal (2019) is an experience of space, time and its infinite clock.

Reverie (2019)

An acid trip nightmare of black and white; dark and light.

In the Eyes of the Beholder (2018)

Beauty and chaos are joined at the hip. You cannot have one without the other. This short film explores the concept that we all focus on the ugly of the world so much that we forget that such beauty exists. There is no beauty without ugly, and vice versa.
