浮界 Unusual as usual
Capture the unusual and mysterious slices in time in the usual world with a camera
The title is from Tang Xian-zu’s term “Yanfujie” in “Mingpan, Mudanting” in Ming Dynasty, which represents the human world. The photos in the series are all taken of actual scenes. In the conversation between the real world and alternate space, the camera has captured the unusual and mysterious slices in the torrent of time, which is a metaphor for this disordered and disturbing world. It is expected that we will finally enter the stage facing the moonlight and come out to greet the daylight.
2020 was a year full of worries and anxiety. Amidst the waves of disasters, many daily routines have become unusual. We have also deeply felt how fragile, helpless, and unpredictable life can be. We don’t know where the future will be. Or…is this the future? As the boundary between reality and illusion gets more and more blurred, it looks as quiet as a dream. However, there is still uneasiness as a mysterious atmosphere that seems to appear feels so real that people can’t help but hold their breath.
Crossing Naihe Bridge, do souls sigh for helplessness and grievance?
Drinking the soup named forgetfulness, do souls forget all the engraved memories or themselves?
