This project explores nature through the practice of wandering, aiming to depict nothingness and emptiness through my lens, with a focus on the present moment we often overlook. Influenced by Zen Buddhism and Daoism, I use photography as a meditative practice.
Meandering around the emptiness with an absencing heart, letting go of self, becoming a no one, leaving no trace, accepting everything arises.
Wandering in this limitless world, with the winds coming and going, the water flowing, all things are interconnected and interdependent. The dream and reality are indistinguishable. Just living in every instant, savouring each moment, and realising the impermanence of the world, everything is just as it is; nothing is lacking in the here and now.
As life unfolds, each instant is intertwined to form the world itself, and time is embodied in all beings; we are the time itself, which is inseparable. We always live in the liminal state between life and death, past and future, reality and dream, heaven and earth, which is crystallised within a photograph’s stillness, representing the in-between world. Yet we can still sense the fluidity of the image flowing into nowhere.
