My kind of landscape

Hong Kong International Photo Festival 2018

Description

Description

In a very subtle way, nature and humans connect to one another. We tend to have such romantic ideas of personalizing our homes with decorative landscapes and sceneries, creating an illusion of being in nature. Indeed, we crave for nature and at the same time keep a distance from it. It becomes my interest to catpure glimpses of nature in the city — no matter how contrddictory and naive it may sound. The attempt allows me to think more deeply about our co-existence with nature. It is my attempt to conceptually transform symbols of landscape that are taking shapre on the streets, or vistas come together by pure chance, into landscape paintings/ photography. I also ventured into abondoned space, scouting about for sceneries left behind, and at times improvising sculptural landscape in derelict interiors, spontaneously casting terrains of the forsaken. Between the stillness of the realms and the disquieted heart, we experience nature as well as life.
