阳光下的颂歌
2014
A regular trip from earthy people in public transport in the corner of a country with freedom and democracy, photographing figures, faces, and shadows of an evening with today’s ingenue social realism. However, in its silent and calm visual, vaguely heard like bringing back the immortal words of Martin Luther King, “I Have A Dream.” We look at—or maybe the other way around, looked at by-the face and figure representing several generations of Afro-American community along with the burst or disappearance of the evening sunlight’s reflection contouring sequences of their presence. Inevitably, the silence during the trip is almost the same as the silence of historical dreams itself.
一次朴素的人们乘坐公共交通的寻常出行,一个自由民主国家的某个角落,一种天真无邪的社会现实主义拍摄着人物,脸庞,和傍晚的斜影。然而,在沉默寂静的视觉影像中,模糊地听到马丁路德金那句永恒的话:“我有一个梦想。”我们看着—或者以另一种方式看着,这些代表了几代美国黑人的脸庞和形象,伴随着傍晚夕阳的照射和消失之间他们忽明忽暗的轮廓。旅途中的沉默不可避免地与那个历史梦本身的沉默近似相同。
