In a rehearsal for the contemporary Hong Kong theatre production 'Presence' (《遙距在場》), actor Michelle Li sits on the floor, interacting with a small, brightly lit remote-controlled robot. The scene is captured through a mirror reflection, creating a layered, intimate aesthetic that plays with themes of distance and digital connection. Michelle, focused on the device, gestures as she follows instructions. The robot glows with vivid green and purple LED lights, highlighting the technological elements often found in Rooftop Productions' avant-garde stage works. Michelle Li says, "FIND POST-ITS, FORM A SENTENCE AND INFORM COLLEAGUE IN ROOM."
