 The “development” of various media states overflows from the surface of material under the influence of southern light and shadow, and is projected into the imagination of time and space, becoming an image of shadow. The Southern terroir and light and shadow area are where people gather to enjoy cool weather and to stay temporarily. It is also where witty words are exchanged and the intersection area for many dieties and strange objects from the terroir/mythological world. Gyrecraft From 300 submissions, Gyrecraft Film Festival selects 6 films that are very characteristic of the Southeastern coastal region and the cultural customs of the South. Using films as a medium, we strive to build a video connection spanning the time difference between the two harbor cities of London and Xiamen. 

不同媒介状态的“显影”，在南方光影的作用下从物质材料的表面溢出，投射到时空的想象中，成为关于影的影像；南方的风土与光影地带，那里既是人们相聚乘凉、暂且停留、妙语连珠之地，也是风土/神话世界中诸多影神异物的交汇地带。环流影像周从300部影片中，精选出6部极具东南沿海地域和南方文化风土的影片，以电影为媒，在伦敦与厦门两座海港城市之间，建立一条跨越时差的影像连线。

*世界首映 At the invitation of the Power Station of Art and the Chanel Culture Fund, young director and visual artist Shen Ruielan, along with her team, followed curator Chen Donghua to delve into the shadows formed by architectural structures under the scorching sun, exploring the vibrant southern shadows, to film the documentary "The Shape of Shadow." The camera moves from art museums and nursing homes in the city center to cultural squares in markets and villages, capturing the interplay between light and shadow, nature and artificiality, fireworks and reality, daily life and the public sphere, the local and the contemporary. Through visual language and bodily sensations, the documentary aims to reveal the complexity of revitalizing architecture, showcasing the impermanence and passion within the southern "shadow" life.

在上海当代艺术博物馆与香奈儿文化基金的邀请下，青年导演、影像艺术家沈蕊兰及其团队跟随策展人陈东华，从暴热阳光下建筑所形成的阴凉之隙，深入南方活力涌动的阴影之地，拍摄展览的同名纪录片《影之道》。从城市中心的美术馆和养老中心，到市集和村落里的文化广场，镜头穿梭于晴与雨，明与暗，自然与人工，烟火与现实，日常与公共，本土与当代之间，以影像语言和身体感受回归活性建筑的复杂性，以此呈现南方“阴影”生活中的某种无常与热情。
