Time Traveler

Hakka TV, Leading Creative Co.

TAIWAN

- Short Film

In "Time Traveler," I used the silent art of mime to convey the profound meaning of time. Time is a silent companion, ever-present like the role played by Hakka TV in contemporary society. It requires no words, yet it embodies multiple roles. I selected four different eras and Hakka cultural figures as the backdrop to showcase the diverse roles time plays in history. Whether it's Sun Yat-sen, Chung Lih-he, Deng Nang-guang, or the contemporary revival of Hakka culture with its blend of retro and avant-garde elements, time takes on unique expressions in various contexts.
