Abstract
I can see the image through others’ eyes; still, I cannot know myself.
This is an attempt to look into the relationship between “myself” and others through photography.
Does the idea of “myself” can be represented by our different faces of body?
It is about self introspection, and establishing a connection between the audience and the creator.
It is a visual journey for both the audience and myself to experience.
Description
I do not want to define and answer what kind of existence is “myself”, and grouping all photos would be “the body-for-others”, but I prefer to express my concern and give a visual experience for the audience and myself to explore together in my photography.
「對於你來說，我是一個怎樣的存在？」/「對於你來說，「我」是一個怎樣的存在？」;透過「變形」的過程，於他人的目光中了解及建立自己的形象。我從你當中看到自己，主體就成為了他人，而我卻無法完全把握這個「我」。
Artist Statement
According to the ideas born from Die Verwandlung by Franz Kafka, and rudimentary development Being and Nothingness by Jean-Paul Sartre. To create the photography based on the basic concept of the faces of the body, “the body-for-others”, using the contrasting perspective to take the photos, and arranged photobooks to experience the thinking process of the meaning of “body”. Also, experiment on the medium and lens to provide another point of view in the audience and creator, exploring “myself” in the opposite direction.
