     Accompanying with the music remixed from the everyday exercise for Chinese students, Eye Protection Exercise playfully examines the concept of cinema as a collective viewing experience. All the 1000~ frames are hand-carved on 16mm film frames (0.404 in × 0.295 in) and transformed to digital form through self-projecting on a screen. With the roughness of the hand-drawn images and the low resolution that comes with the process of digitalizing, it raises questions upon the experience of seeing under the industrial trend of higher resolution.
