LYNN LOO
Lynn Loo is
originally from Singapore and currently based in London. Her works draw on
similarities between music and film. Her knowledge of musical structure is
applied to the thought-processes of experimental filmmaking. Her approach is
always intimate and personal; each film attempts to create a balanced entity
within a wider field of chaos.
Her films have been included in numerous international festivals as well as
exhibited in galleries. She is a recipient of the Anne Raymond Louis Foundation
Fellowship, Chicago 2001 and was a fellow artist at The MacDowell Colony in New
Hampshire in 2004. She has also taught classes at Lasalle-SIA College of Arts in
Singapore.
A Love Story
Location: Singapore
An experimental film

Color. Sound. No Dialogue.
An end to a relationship is a birth of mixed emotions. This is a personal
journal about love. In the absence of dialogue, a poetry of abstract moving
images in the rhythm of the filmmaker’s consciousness.
