The Place You Are
Photo-etching with chine collé
Curator
Zhang Naiqian
It's great to see a photography piece. The characteristics of her work are quite evident. The use of long exposure creates a subtle and ethereal sensation, reminiscent of silver gelatin printing, but she has executed it even better. Her artworks revolve around the theme of "home," although I feel that there are few clues visible in the works. The expression is delicate, which may present a certain level of challenge for some viewers. Overall, this is a visually appealing photography piece, possessing a cool temperament and a relatively profound expression.
About
this Artwork
"Home” can refer to a specific place, as well as a person, a cat, a piece of furniture, or even scents and sounds—anything that brings a sense of familiarity and comfort. "Home" is a noun that should always enable us to return, but it is not eternal, and our understanding of it can also change. The artwork uses a pinhole camera to capture the flowing light through long exposures, imprinting it onto the same frame. These images are then transformed into prints, with the intention of preserving comforting scenes and freezing them in the present moment.
