Artist Statement
The process of making an art work is my way to interpret the life of humanity, the value of humanity and the identity of people.
Since the initial contact with photography I found out that the medium’s great pliability is perfect for creative expressions. Inspired by my curiosity about humans, portrait became my major work. Through portraits I can express people’s longing, pursuit and the relationships between humans, nature and society, cognition and perception.
