  • 现代生活瞬息万变的时代背景,不断拉扯着我们与自然的关系,也不断转换着我们观看自然的方式。我们曾与自然相生相伴,却随着时代的洪流渐渐疏离。西湖之水,流经了时间的长河,蕴育了一方水土,而如今正逐渐演化为一张照片、一段影像,被收集于手机屏幕的方寸之间。自然,在真实与照片的双重主体间不断切换,我们作为主体,也在拍摄者与观赏者的身份间来回游走,动荡的、交错的、片段式的视觉体验成为了当下文化语境下的现实。
      漫步于西湖湖畔,透过照片、视频、声音,多重维度的组合试图再现当下的片刻感知,飘忽不定间,波澜有形,气韵无形。西湖之水,荡漾闪烁间,草木芳华,时光荏苒。西湖之水,听世间变迁,幻化于波涛之中,亘古不变。
      The ever-changing context of modern life is constantly pulling at our relationship with nature and changing the way we see it. We were once born with nature, but we are gradually alienated with the flood of the times. The water of West Lake, which has flowed through the long river of time and nurtured a side of water and land, is now gradually evolving into a photo, an image, collected in the square of the cell phone screen. Nature is keep switching between the dual subjects of real world and virtual photo. We, as subjects, also wander back and forth between the identity of photographer and viewer, and the turbulent, interlaced and fragmented visual experience becomes the reality in the current cultural context.
      Strolling along the shores of West Lake, I attempted to reproduce the momentary perception of the present through the combination of photographs, video and sound, multiple dimensions, with the fluctuating waves and invisible rhythms. The water of the West Lake, was shimmering and glistening, the grass and trees were lush and leafy, and the time kept running ahead. Listening to the changes in the world, the water of West Lake is transformed in the waves, unchanged throughout the ages.
