16mm colour film transferred to HD video, 2min 29sec, 1/5 “[a] camera pans slowly from right to left to reveal how the painting Bent can, with light, expand into and activate its surrounding space.” Shot in 16mm colour film for depth of tone, but appearing almost black and white, Bent in Motion focuses on the movement of light and shadow on Yu’s oil on aluminum painting Bent (2011)."
