Design Details

Unique Properties
Using macro photography combined with abstract concepts expressed in computer post, the photographs express an ethereal, unknown and unreal world of nirvana.
Inspiration
Nirvana is a Buddhist term for the transcendence of life and death, which can also be understood as rebirth. It is invisible, but you can feel it, it is both static and dynamic, and it is frozen in the moment of rebirth. The transformation between ice and water can also be understood as a kind of nirvana, but it cannot be too figuratively represented. Through macro photography integrated into the Chinese ink painting mood to show an unknown, unreal world of nirvana.
Research
Through macro photography, abstract photography works similar to the artistic conception of traditional Chinese ink painting are presented. Photography works mainly study the photographic expression of abstract concepts and the abstract expression language of water, ice and ink, hoping to create an abstract visual effect of virtual and real, static and dynamic.
Challenge
The difficulty of creation is to represent the abstract concept of Nirvana. More than 20 different shapes of ice were used in the studio and hundreds of photos were taken repeatedly from different angles in order to get the ideal picture and find the right light and form.
Realization and Technology
Macro shooting and computer post-processing.
Operation and Interaction
By capturing the moment of liquid and ice breaking, we express an unreal, abstract world.
Project Duration and Location
Completion in Shanghai in October 2021
