Rise and Fall

“Past and present flow into one another.”

Rise and Fall is a two-channel video installation by artist Fiona Tan, exploring the relationship between memory, time and identity. Two women from different generations appear in similar landscapes, their everyday routines interwoven with gestures that evoke memories and connections across time. Images of moving water serve as a metaphor for the fluid relationship between past and present, as memories and experiences continually overlap and influence one another.
