ARTIST STATEMENT
The collection of encounters
People often hear singing, dancing can change a person, I think photography also can do this. When I became a photographer, I became more sensitive to things, and I began to learn to observe the flow of energy. I knew how to look at things in different perspectives, the moments of beauty in my life, the joy of life, the wonderful scenery, the pain and gentle. All of these constitute my work.

The harshness of these photos, filled with fear and foreboding, appealed to me very much. They seem to suggest a special quality of the age we live in. With a unique viewpoint, this work says a lot in an era overflowing with ordinary images.
