Red Radio Over Shanghai

The story of "Electric Wave" takes place on the eve of the liberation of Shanghai, and is based on the true story of the martyr Li Bai. It is a city card born from the red genes of Shanghai. There is no dialogue in the dance drama film, and the emotional explosion is vividly expressed through the body, conveying the strong love between the two through their dance, eyes, and body movements. The emotional struggle and compromise, as well as the mutual empathy between them, are more intense and lasting than any line of dialogue. The film is adapted from the original dance drama of the same name.

Street Nuisance

The work is inspired by a text of the same name, written by Charles Babbage in 1864. Better known for his computational inventions, Babbage also rose to prominence for his satirically obsessive battle against noise pollution from buskers in nineteenth-century London, advocating for silence as a civic right. Departing from this premise, Spagnola’s new video installs a street performer on loop. The video rehearses a series of outmoded archetypes—the hippie, the Californian, the rocker—and reprises the child busker character from her earlier works to reflect on the antiquated promise of self-reliance and the systematic elimination of shared experience.
