Lost In Metamorphoses

By Wenqingao Lei

This body of work presents a visual exploration into the ambiguity that lies between the spaces of reality and illusion. A key influence is Surrealist imagery as I attempt to create a sense of absurdity and fluidity of metamorphoses within my work.

Significantly, this series also questions related issues, including the complex relations formed between humans and animals, death and dying, sustainability, anthropocene and the photography’s intense connection with our encounters and relationship with space and time.
