Springs of a hundred affections

In this project, I delve into the intricate dance between the natural forces and living beings, capturing fleeting constellations that emerge from their rhythmic interplay. My aim is to reveal the mystery and harmony in these transcendental moments.

As humans, we are inherently connected to the cosmos, perceiving reality through our limited sensory receptors. However, there are moments when we undergo a kind of dissolution of the psychological and sensory boundaries of the self.

 "Springs of a hundred affections" is an expression of my artistic practice that I subconsciously follow to evoke the sensation of unity with the “external world”, akin to the consciousness of an infant who hasn't yet distinguished itself from others and its surroundings.

In this project, I delve into the intricate dance between the natural forces and living beings, capturing fleeting constellations that emerge from their rhythmic interplay. Each image becomes a tapestry of motion, where the repetitive gestures of wind, water, and other elemental forces are woven seamlessly with the presence of organisms. Through careful observation, I seek to reveal the mystery and harmony in these transcendental moments, inviting viewers to contemplate the interconnectedness of all life forms and phenomena and reflect upon their relationship with the universe and the essence of our existence.

The title draws inspiration from Walt Whitman's poem "Song of Myself."
