This experimental animation by Max Hattler approaches Hong Kong’s built environment from the conceptual perspective of celluloid film, by applying the technique of film animation to the photographic image. The city’s signature architecture of horizon-eclipsing housing estates is reimagined as parallel rows of film strips: Serial Parallels.

The Chrysalis (NSFW)
“It felt like stepping into a totally different world and I remember my first time going up on stage and literally shaking. I mean, I was dancing naked in front of strangers for the first time and I’d never been so vulnerable before. I loved it. I got really close with the other girl who worked there. They supported me and showed me that at the club those rules I learned growing up about being feminine meant being quiet and delicate and modest didn’t apply here. It was exhilarating.”
