Film
L'ÉPHÉMÈRE is a visual meditation on transience, memory and the passage of time. Composed exclusively of static shots, the film captures suspended moments where life seems to waver between appearance and disappearance. Each frame becomes a silent and poetic space for contemplation.
Born in Mudanjiang, China, Li Xiang is a filmmaker and visual artist based in Paris. After studying at the Łódź Film School in Poland, he joined Le Fresnoy – Studio national des arts contemporains. His work explores themes of time, space, memory and death. Developing a minimalist and introspective aesthetic, he favours sequence shots and seeks to uncover a form of poetry in the banality of everyday life.
