摄影感悟
Reflections on Photography
理念
摄影是关于观察—捕捉—表达的一系列活动，但究其本质是对于时刻和光线的理解，是这一瞬间的事件和情绪如何在你的生命中被延续，在更广阔的场域被传达。
古埃及人符号化了很多极其抽象的概念，时间就是其中之一。衔尾蛇咬自身尾巴成圆环，象征着交替轮回、永恒循环的时间观，这也是 ∞ 符号的起源。一旦深刻地觉察和领悟了时间，也就明白了阴晴圆缺、潮涨潮汐、花开花落和悲欢离合。
而借助摄影这个方式，不断让我悟到了光的语言。每日明暗的变化，正是时间和万物的交互，正是其存在过的痕迹。
Philosophy
Photography is a sequence of acts—observing, capturing, and expressing. At its core, however, it is an understanding of moments and light: how the events and emotions of an instant continue through your life and are carried into a wider field of experience.
The ancient Egyptians gave symbolic form to many profoundly abstract ideas, and time was one of them. The ouroboros, a serpent biting its own tail to form a circle, represents recurring alternation and the eternal cycle of time; it is also an origin of the infinity symbol. Once we become deeply aware of time and begin to comprehend it, we understand waxing and waning, the rise and fall of tides, flowers blooming and fading, and the meetings and partings of human life.
Through photography, I continue to awaken to the language of light. The daily shifts between brightness and darkness reveal the interaction of time with all things; they are the traces of what has existed.
风格
明媚而哀伤，圆满即残缺，当下即永恒，反差、矛盾和碰撞。
无论是《易经》中的否卦和泰卦、十二长生中帝旺的状态、禅宗里的顿悟，还是日本文化中的物哀，都奠定了东方审美中的精髓：
- 不寻求答案，只呈现状态（白描）
- 于细微处，见大千世界
- 物我交融，变化中静观
Style
Radiant yet sorrowful; completeness already containing absence; the present moment as eternity; contrast, contradiction, and collision.
Whether in the opposing hexagrams of Stagnation and Peace in the I Ching, the flourishing phase of the Twelve Stages of Life, sudden awakening in Zen, or the Japanese sensibility of mono no aware, these ideas form the essence of an Eastern aesthetic:
- Do not seek answers; simply present the state of things.
- See the vast world within the smallest details.
- Let self and object merge; contemplate stillness within change.
