Pyramids and Parabolas III is a structuralist film, unfolding across extraterrestrial-like terrains—icy vistas illuminated by a midnight sun, undulating white-sand deserts, volcanic fields—that mirror states of psychic dislocation and perceptual flux. Shot on 16mm film and GoPro over six years at space analogs across Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Iceland, and the Arctic, the film inhabits a liminal space between documentary, speculative fiction, and philosophical inquiry. The artist uses the camera to investigate both the physical and psychological solitude of navigating these surreal and sublime landscapes, connecting hexagonal elemental patterns of the Earth to the vast, unknowable geometry of the universe. Narrated by the artist, it weaves diaristic and poetic reflections with elemental geometries and inherited secrets, probing the entangled logics of memory, matter, and cosmic order.
《角锥体与抛物线III》是一部结构主义影片，在宛如外星的地貌上徐徐展开——极昼子夜太阳下苍茫的冰原、起伏延绵的白沙漠、熔岩台地……这些景观映射出心理的错位感和涌动的感知流。王凝慧在六年间使用16毫米胶片和GoPro，横跨犹他州、新墨西哥州、亚利桑那州、冰岛和北极等“类太空”环境拍摄了这部影片，构建出介于纪录片、推想小说和哲学探究之间的临界空间，镜头语言流露出她在途中身与心的孑然，并将地球上的六边形元素与宇宙浩渺莫测的几何体联系在一起。伴随着艺术家口述的日记体诗意旁白，几何结构与家族秘辛交织缠绕，影片逐渐深入记忆、物质与宇宙秩序之间错综复杂的逻辑勾连。
