Mr. Red’s works in this exhibition consists of a video installation, five paintings done with acrylic on canvas and with objets d'intérêt arranged on the floor which are together set up in a way to approximate the cinematic-watching experience.

The five paintings in the exhibit echo the objets d'intérêt that are displayed on the floor, and like a trick of mirrors, reflects them in various re-arrangements. One might even say that cinema is a trick by itself made possible because of the persistence of vision. With the aid of light flashing successive still images with minute differences at a steady speed, the eye and the brain is tricked into thinking movement.
