Continuous lighting plays a crucial role in my work, serving as a key element in projecting shadows onto paper. Even when the editing process might render an image somewhat surreal, the interplay of light and shadow creates a compelling illusion that the object truly exists.
I consider paper the ideal medium to convey my artistic vision. While my work may not teach traditional photographic techniques, it offers viewers an alternative perspective on photography, encouraging them to see beyond conventional approaches. The combination of different colors results in diverse visual effects, reflecting the subjective nature of color perception. I aim for each viewer to have a unique experience when engaging with my work. This raises an intriguing question: would these images carry the same meaning if I painted them instead of capturing them through photography?
Some of my latest pieces have been recreated using 3D painting techniques, hinting at a future where such methods may increasingly be supplanted by technological advancements. This evolution prompts us to reflect on the essence of photography and the role of manual craftsmanship in an age dominated by digital processes. Are we approaching a time when traditional photography and handmade artworks like mine will be rendered obsolete by technology? This is a question I wish to pose to my audience, sparking contemplation about the enduring value and transformation of our artistic practices.
