Now then

"We all are survivors, witnesses of history, and the suffering of others. Whether we like it or not, the pandemic has changed our life. Just like the person who has survived famine can't stop hoarding food in their whole life, the senses of disaster and survival are melting into our mind and blood, it's gradually affecting the way we express ourselves, our facial expressions, and even linguistic habits. What has this collective disaster brought us and taken from us? Perhaps we can't answer yet. To perceive, to preserve, that's all it means.

This project aims to express an emotional experience of the specific period of COVID-19, through capturing still & moving image materials from media platforms and integrating footages with different photographic mediums. It's about the collective memory from an individual perspective, and also a visual expression of personal private emotions and wills projected to the outside space. We all have fallen in pain, we all have tried to escape, and we all have a life to continue."
