Synopsis
Sumi is making a plastic lampshade using discarded plastic spoons. She encounters three illusions as she reminisces about old thoughts and her past lover.
Director's Comment
[Illusion] addresses the relationship between the eternal and the temporal, experimenting with century-old poetry, digitally preserved museum open-sources, and the latest in 3D software and artificial intelligence.

Detailed description
Director ROH Youngmee's new work, "Illusion", which has attempted to combine and re-sentify no copy right images and existing stories across animation, media art, and experimentation, is another extension of the work so far, and is now at the forefront of various sharp debates.
In the place where the natural phenomenon of the sun rising and setting is unnatural, the protagonist makes a spoon out of discarded plastic. The radio story of an ideal AI husband and a woman who remarried, and an e-mail from a broadcasting station asking for an interview praising her youth and beauty for "wrinkled by not applying sunscreen" in an interview. Is this a prediction of the future we will soon face? A mixture of the past and the future, moments and eternity, and time and space that weaved through the latest technology represented by open sources and artificial intelligence in public archives in old poems in the 1900s? Or is it a disturbing welcome of time that has already arrived? MO Eunyoung
