Image #13 from my lastest project Prototype.

My ongoing work Prototype is an photographic investigation based on rethinking the fundamental concepts and principles in photography.

In Prototype, my idea is to exceed the traditional concepts of light and reveal its intangibility. A new form of digital image does not only measures light concerning colors but also emphasizes a kind of separation. Light, as the most important element in any photographic process, diminishes its importance in its final stage, so it is no longer recognizable at the first glance. Light emphasizes contours, and trying to persuade you that the camera is your eye’s prostheses, but it’s actually not. Based on the illusion of photography’s time-freeze action, it emphasizes a phenomenon of acceleration that is obliterating our experience of distances and dimensions.

I am attempting to find the ambiguities in these pre-defined photographic rules, and using visual language to interpret the natural sensibility and homeless part in images.
