How to expose the image of a city?


Photographic Installation|Size dependent on space| 2022



In a foreign country, I construct my imagination about home through the light of a distant window. It was a window that I remembered from the past, with a shimmering light. I tried hard to see what was inside the house. In the process of pulling the focal length, I was like a snooper, using the long focal length to close the distance between me and it.

The protective varnish on the photograph emits its own light when exposed to UV light, just like a light-sensitive coating. The location of the light on the photo It can be compared to the second exposure of photography. Such a process is like exposing the invisible layer of depression behind the urban architectural space.




如何曝光一個城市的影像


攝影裝置 | 尺寸由空間而定 | 2022


處在異鄉透過遠處窗的光景建構關於家的想像,那是記憶中似曾相識的窗戶,透著微光,努力地想要看清屋內的事物。在拉動焦段的過程中,我像是一個窺探者,在用長焦段拉近我跟它之間的距離。

照片上的保護漆如同感光塗層一般,受到紫外光線的照射而發出自身的光亮;照片上光亮的位置如夜晚透光的窗戶,發出另外一種光線,可以比做攝影的二次曝光,這樣的過程就好像要將都市建築空間中背後看不見的那一層壓抑面暴露出來一樣。
