Design Details

Unique Properties
Unlike normal photography, audience might feel it like a painting at the first sight from its surreal angles. This is the most interesting and unique part of my photography that it could blur between painting and photography, transcending the ordinary between the state of dream and reality.
Inspiration
This series is inspired from the primary colors - Red, Yellow, Blue which used to appear in painting and design. I want to create an experimental approach with these 3 colors in reality together with the lines and different perspectives, making it into a 2-dimension surrealism and painting-like photography.
Research
I research into the spectrum of colors and discover colors are corresponded by the light wavelength. Without light, there is no colors. Identically, without light, there is no photography. What we capture is a freeze of light and frequency at the moment. Ultimately, photography and colors are complement to each another.
Challenge
A search for a new and fresh expression of colors and painting in photography medium.
Realization and Technology
This project was photographed with digital camera and digital processed by the software Vsco and Adobe Photoshop. Prints are on Hahnemuhle Fine Art Paper.
Operation and Interaction
This series tries to move the vision of the world into colors, lines, contrast, geometry and abstraction, seeing the ordinary in extraordinary. Beauty is everywhere in our world which is just waiting to be discovered. I hope the audience could open their vision of the world by knowing there are many perspectives to view our reality.
Project Duration and Location
Discovering beauty in world is a never-ending project. These photos are taken in June 2018 and this project is still on going. Unexhibited Series.

Images printed size 40 cm x 30 cm with a black border of 10 cm wide on all sides. Limited edition, 10 for each picture, framed.
