This work marks my first encounter with video as a medium. It begins from a sense of nostalgia felt while living in a foreign country, and reflects on how memories of home return through sound, language and fragmented images.

​

The video opens with a conversation between two people speaking in their hometown dialect. Their voices move around the winding streets of Chongqing, carrying small details of everyday life: familiar places, ordinary habits, casual exchanges and personal memories. Rather than presenting home as a complete or stable image, the work follows the way memory actually appears, broken, layered and sometimes unclear.

​

Throughout the video, fragments of past experience are woven into the moving image. These moments do not form a linear narrative. Instead, they drift in and out, like flashes of memory that are triggered by sound, place and emotion. The dialect becomes especially important here. It is not only a tool of communication, but also a carrier of intimacy and belonging. Even when the body is far away, language can briefly bring the feeling of home back into the present.

​

The work explores nostalgia not as a simple longing for the past, but as a more complex emotional condition. Living elsewhere makes home feel both close and distant. It can be remembered clearly in small details, yet remain impossible to fully return to. Through video, voice and fragmented imagery, the work considers how personal memory is reshaped by distance, and how the idea of home can survive through ordinary sounds, streets and conversations.

这件作品是我第一次尝试以影像作为创作媒介。它从我身处异乡时对故乡海边生活的怀念出发，思考家的记忆如何通过声音、语言和碎片化的图像重新浮现。

​

影像以两个人的对话作为开端，他们使用家乡方言交谈，声音游走在重庆蜿蜒的街道之中。对话内容并不宏大，而是关于故乡生活中的细小片段：熟悉的地点、日常的习惯、随意的交流和个人记忆。作品并不试图把“家”呈现为一个完整、稳定的图像，而是顺着记忆真实出现的方式展开：断裂的、层叠的，有时甚至是模糊的。

​

在影像中，过去经验的片段不断被编织进移动的画面里。这些记忆并不构成线性的叙事，而是像被声音、地点和情绪触发的瞬间，在画面中时隐时现。方言在这里尤为重要。它不仅是交流的工具，更承载着亲密感和归属感。即使身体已经远离故乡，语言仍然能够在短暂的瞬间，把“家”的感觉重新带回当下。

​

作品中的乡愁并不是对过去的简单怀念，而是一种更复杂的情感状态。身处异地时，故乡既变得很近，又显得遥远。它可以在一些细节中被清晰记起，却又无法被真正完整地回返。通过影像、声音和碎片化图像，作品思考个人记忆如何被距离重新塑造，以及“家”如何通过普通的声音、街道和对话继续存在。
