Be Chapter II
Concept
"Be" is an important photography project for me, as it feels like a self-portrait of my inner state.
Within this project, I explored two directions. The first exploration continues the inversion processing technique from my previous projects, Black Day and White Night. It extends this technique from black-and-white to color, aiming to expand the possibilities of inversion imagery.
The second exploration involves attempting to merge the interiors of technological products with natural elements. The former symbolizes my rational side as an engineer, while the latter represents my sensitive side as an artist. Rationality and sensibility often conflict in my journey of self-realization, and I am trying to visualize and merge them together, just as I strive for these two aspects to coexist and flourish in my life.
