In a highly developed tropical island city, the built environment is
systematically cleaned and replaced as a way of resisting the tropical
forces of decay and parasitic growth.
But Charles Lim wonders if this particular human behavior is not
actually another form of these same tropical forces.He notices that
human construction operates exactly like
parasitic growth. The only difference is that human behavior has the
power, for short periods, to conquer the environment entirely, giving
rise to a totally sterilized "clean slate" on
which to build.
This system of sterilization encourages the fear of the "ghost -
everything that suggests any other histories. There is a formidable
presence that cannot be forgotten and must not be mentioned.
Lim's films of decay and sterilization seek to probe and test this
presence.
