Making Fantasies animates scenes based upon photographs by Nan Goldin, Larry Sultan, Richard Billingham, Yasuyoshi Chiba and famous photojournalism images such as Jeff Widener’s photograph of Tiananmen Square and Kevin Carter’s photograph of a Sudanese child being stalked by a vulture. By fabricating narrative and aesthetic connections between the images on three channels, Pei-Shih questions the objectivity and truth telling of photography.
Taiwanese artist Pei-Shih Tu makes animated videos using stop motion, cutting, pasting, and collaging. She uses jerky animated movements and fantasy-like versions of the real world to express her view that our modern perception of reality itself a fiction created by the desire to escape real life. She studied at Goldsmiths College in London. Her work has been exhibited internationally at numerous film festivals and exhibitions.
