:SEPARATION

Separation has been the elephant in the room recently.

The desire to escape from our chaotic daily life has never been so urgent. Although physical separation sometimes makes us feel tied-up and anxious, mental separation from relentless changes, on the contrary, can ease such stress.

Photography is a process of framing or separating the main body from the complex backdrop. Visual representations not only document the reality but express the imaginary world behind the frame.


The book compiles of contemplation moments at night in the densely-built urban environment. Intense colors and reflections in the city compose a symphony projected to the city when it's dark. Wandering through streets and compositing the scene became a way of escape from the city life while being part of it. Most of the works are shot after working hours when the city life begins to settle down. Tranquility could be rediscovered even when you are not in the nature, where shimmering lights from the fainted dark background sets up the stage for wanderlust.
