Be - Chapter I
"Be" 對我來說是一個重要的系列作品，因為它就像是我內心狀態的自畫像。
在這個系列中，我主要探索了兩個方向，第一個方向的探索延續了我在 Black Day 和 White Night 兩個系列中的反相處理手法，將它從黑白拓展到彩色，旨在擴展反相影像的可能性。
第二個探索則嘗試將科技產品的內部構造與自然元素融合在一起；前者象徵我作為工程師的理性面，而後者代表我作為藝術家的感性面。理性與感性經常在我的自我實現旅程中產生衝突，而我試圖將兩者視覺化並融合在一起，就像我努力讓這兩個面向在我的生命中能夠共存共榮。

"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.
