PARADIIISE
PARADIIISE is my safe place
PARADIIISE is everything that I have dreamt of
The very purpose of my life
But
Destruction is coming
Distort it
Reprogram it
Establish, cut, edit, and modify it all over.
PARADIIISE is the depiction of an ever-changing imaginary utopian world. It is simply our dreams, ambitions, and goals. We all have an idea of what we want. We put it in a world in our heads. Unexpected things may happen, and we may be in pain and shatter into pieces. PARADIIISE will crumble. Nothing is the same. Everything changes! A story about impermanence in an abstract, poetic, psychedelic form of an audiovisual experience.
The project started with Wang Xoo’s thesis 'Everything Changes'. With the audio production from Marie Lou, and Wang Xoo on the visuals. They played, explored, pushed boundaries, and influenced each other's practice, between audio and visual. PARADIIISE is the outcome of that experimental and ever-changing collaboration.
