"Have Forgotten no.3" is a good demonstration of perspective and has created a nice angle of the urban landscape. It is a combination of spaces and lines that cleverly gives a sense of a maze, inviting viewers to delve into the intricacies of urban architecture and explore the complex interplay of shadow and light. This piece, in particular, showcases Aria's skill in rendering familiar scenes into something extraordinary and thought-provoking.
“Taxis over and over the mountain. The fact is drivers are busy with business. However, what I can see does not belong to here, not to now. I cannot ensure what actually happened at that time, but the scenes are in my mind indeed.” The series titled 'Have Forgotten' consists of 9 photo-etching prints, representing a cross-disciplinary approach that reflects upon the direct capturing of actuality through the medium of photography, followed by reworking the images through print-making. By editing the photographic images on the plate, a fusion of photography and drawing emerges.The cityscape may appear ordinary initially, but its inherent normality is intertwined with a profound emotional connection and memories of the city.The forgotten is never forgotten.
