a video show with no electricity

found these photos in my files and forgot that I wanted to post them. Close to a month ago I went to see a show over the new Legation Quarter, a new luxury complex along the lines of Shanghai's Three on the Bund--fancy shops, restaurants and of course, a top notch art gallery. It was their inaugural show called "Where are we?" with an impressive line up of artists so I went to see what the fuss was about. However, the whole complex is still under construction and we arrived to discover that the power was turned off. These spaces meant for video became eerie and a bit haunting, like something had spirited away the images...where are they?
