Impermanence

Impermanence means everything changes and has no permanence.
As I grew up, I learned that everything about me is shifting and disorderly, but there is ultimate order in the heart of disorder—a person's beliefs, past, and future. What's left once individuals die? In this project, I analysed the spirit and material world independently and hope that ‘Impermanence' is not limited to a single personal experience; the discussion of time and individuals where death is implicit, from beginning to end.
The photograph is a gateway to me and somebody I memorise. After the sudden end of a close relationship, the material world occasionally becomes a ghost space where memories are absorbed and reflected as everlasting longing. Their presence forms solid space in the fluid era, the past becomes an undead body, and the first gap between is material space. 'Impermanence' is an intermittent narrative that is also coherent. Time that has passed is gone, but the memories and impressions they left behind are timeless. The stagnant nature of material spaces and the inability to stop time created the spatial 'impermanence'.
I recognised that although I avoided the ‘personal’, every step I took for this space came from myself.
