La Luna y el Hacedor 月亮与创造者
Photography
2020
"La Luna y el Hacedor" is an artistic exploration of the human experience in the face of nature's immense power. Born from a period of quarantine amidst the Covid-19 outbreak, this series of images is inspired by the poems of Jorge Luis Borges' collection, "El Hacedor."
During the creation of “La Luna y el Hacedor”, my artistic exploration took me across New Zealand, China, and Cambodia, where I captured photographic elements that formed the basis of my work. Through the use of double-exposure and re-composition, I created new visual dimensions that offer a surreal interpretation of our living environment. Through reimagining photos taken before the pandemic, I create a dreamlike world that pays tribute to the boundless nature and the limitless imagination of humanity, transcending physical constraints of freedom. In this series, I reflect on the power dynamics between humans and the natural world, where humans are portrayed as insignificant in comparison to the larger forces of nature. The epidemic is symbolized as a fog, evoking a sense of mystery and uncertainty, as I pose the question, "What's in the fog?"
Through this work, I invite the viewer to question their place in the world and to reflect on the relationship between humanity and the natural world.
This series is a collaborative work between literature, imagination, and art, showcasing the boundless potential of the human spirit and the power of nature to shape and inspire us.
