Happiness (Set of 4 Screenshots), 喜悦 (4張截圖)
2 sets of video clips taken from the mid-1970s film, In The Shipyard, are used in the installation: one of the videos features scenes of the male protagonist giving a speech, the other video shows groups of workers passionately clapping. The 2 videos are projected onto walls or screens set up in an L shape. When the speech stops on one screen, there is clapping on the other screen.
