ANIMATION→ Elephant in Castle 城堡裡的大象 (2021)


Elephant in Castle is a 2D digital animation, using a hand-drawn frame-by-frame process to create subtle abstract narratives. The work expresses a constant change within Lee’s inner world, to express the emotional, aesthetic, and tactile responses that she has to Hong Kong, the city where she grew up. Stepping into a new decade, the world is coming to an unprecedented and critical moment in history. The work could be a reflection conveyed by Lee's sentimental responses to the personal stories and memories that took place in the city.


《城堡裡的大象》使用逐幀手繪的方法,創造出幽微又抽象的敘事。這部作品創作於2019年和2020年這兩個奇特的年份。表達了創作者不斷變化的內心世界,並描繪了她對香港這個她出生長大的城市有關情感、美學及觸覺上的回應。 創作靈感來⾃與 Topophilia 相關的研究主題和藝術作品。Topophilia 是⼀個希臘傳統術語,結合⾃Topo-,「地⽅」,和-philia,「愛的」,意為⼀種「強烈的地⽅感,往往與某些⼈對該地的⽂化認同感和對某些⽅⾯的喜愛混合在⼀起」。⽣活在⼀個城市裡的⼈可能來⾃不同的地⽅,但對於居住的地⽅,甚⾄只是偶爾經過的某個地點,他們都構築起了屬於⾃⼰的情感連結。 


ANIMATION→ Park Voyage 遊・樂・園 (2022)


Park Voyage is a series of hand-drawn animations commissioned by M+ Museum.
Inspired by the long forgotten Shek Kip Mei Park, the bike lanes in the New Territories’ township of Sha Tin, and M+ museum, Florence Lee’s expressive animation takes viewers on an imaginary ride through a Hong Kong playground and subway tunnel. Geometric shapes, gestural linework, and rich colours create a fanciful space that intertwines memory and everyday life.


《遊、樂、園》是M+委約創作的三件作品,將李鈺淇對香港的個人記憶轉化為她標誌性的手繪動畫。
李鈺淇受被城市遺忘的石硤尾公園,以及新界沙田區內單車徑和M+建築的啟發,以生動的動畫帶領觀眾在想像中乘風騎行,穿梭於香港常見的遊樂場和行人隧道。幾何形狀、繪畫態勢線條和豐富的色彩創造了一個奇特空間,將記憶和日常生活相互交織。




























ANIMATION→ You built a home in my heart 心之房 (2023-2024)



Translating and encapsulating the artist's personal childhood experiences as well as past lived experiences, “You build a home in my mind” explores themes of memory, loss, and resilience. It comprises of objects from childhood and special objects recalled from memories—weaving together a melody that lures the viewers to roam and wander. The animated imagery of Hong Kong's cityscape symbolizes the fleeting nature of experiences and the emotional weight they carry. By weaving together nostalgic objects and fragmented memories, the work invites viewers on a journey that mirrors their own searches for meaning in a world marked by uncertainty and change.


《心之房》回顧藝術家自身的童年回憶及過往經歷,圍繞對記憶、失去與復原力的探討。在搖籃曲似的⾳樂節奏中,回憶的⼩船從⼀⽚湖⽔綠的流動影像之中破浪⽽出,航⾏於夢境與記憶之間,回憶中別具意義的物件及公園的遊樂設施飄散、旋轉、浮游於觀眾⾯前,城市的碎片拼湊出交錯的朦朧敍事,牽引觀眾去尋找它所承載的記憶與生命。通過將懷舊物品和碎片化的記憶交織在一起,作品邀請觀眾踏上一段自我探索的旅程,映照着他們在一個充滿不確定性和變化的世界中所尋找的意義。

Animation→ Lensless (2015)



'Lensless' is an abstract animation themed with Fight and Memory, made with ink-painting on 16mm film.





Animation→ Time of Winter 冬日時光 (2018)



“Time of Winter" is a one-minute animation that captures the ephemeral nature of time and its ceaseless passage. Through the evocative portrayal of a winter setting, the animation subtly reminds us of the transient beauty and relentless progression of our lives.

《冬日時光》是一部一分鐘的動畫短片,捕捉了時間的短暫性和不可逆轉的流逝。通過描繪冬季景象,這部動畫微妙地提醒我們生活的流逝和轉瞬即逝的美麗。
