Amnesia: A Rehearsal 29 minutes 31 seconds 2010 Amnesia: A Rehearsal is a psychological anti-narrative based on the intertwined biographies of Sarah Winchester, Jane Austen and chance internal crossings of the artist herself with Marigold Verity, a harpist in Sherborne. In 2007, as part of a wider research trip across Hong Kong and California, Yung journeyed to San Jose to interview Shozo Kagoshima, director of the million-dollar labyrinth mansion; the Winchester Mystery House. Three years later, the compulsion to revisit the figure of Sarah Winchester and a tortured existence consumed by s?ces and never ending construction repeats itself through Yung?s own memory and need to re-enact an unresolved history.

Still from ‘Love’

Kai-Oi Jay Yung, 'Still from 'Love'', Film still, 2010. Photo: Kai-Oi Jay Yung. Courtesy: Kai-Oi Jay Yung. 'Love' is one of the 11 films to be shown as part of 'Interval; A Narrative Psychosis'. 'Love' 15 minutes 30 seconds 'Love' presents intimate and personal responses to the places we live and those close to us. The fear of loss and passing of time is evident in an unspoken conversation between artist and her grandmother, whilst breaking parent-child behavioural roles proves difficult for a woman in her forties. A coast guard demonstrates discontents of LA living whilst we hear of Hollywood film industry foils and fables from producers and Spielberg?s scriptwriter. In Palm Springs, pensioner Connie exalts in her freedom whilst an LA young couple talk about their attraction to each other.

Kai-Oi Jay Yung, 'Still from 'New World'', Video, 2010. Photo: Kai-Oi Jay Yung. Courtesy: Kai-Oi Jay Yung. One of eleven video works as part of 'Interval; A Narrative Psychosis'. 'New World' 3 minutes 59 seconds 'New World' contemplates man?s hopes and aspirations pitted against reality and our limitations. The red curtain and costumed Alice showcase a journey about to begin; dreamy lyrics offer hope of ?a whole new world? as we glide across the South China Sea and scan the hopeful faces on an Ocean Park escalator. We are reminded of the impermanence of such elation with the constant backdrop of themed Disneyland and a young boy?s inability to separate the obvious gap between what is real and artificial.
