<sour candy>

 


This on going project is a simple exploration of human specie through the lens of a Polaroid.

Initially, this was a short, fun idea born out of testing the new Polaroid I-2 camera, but it eventually evolve into a long-term project. It reflects my desire, as a photographer, to use the Polaroid as a tool to almost rebelliously strip away the social identities of individuals and capture their raw, almost childlike reactions.

This series is a lighthearted and joyful project where I use the Polaroid as a medium to capture, narrate, and document that fleeting moment when an adult loses control. I aim to capture the decisive moments of life using a Polaroid camera. I’ve always found the way the human brain controls the body fascinating—it's rare for an adult to lose control in front of others. So with the aim of making an adult lose its control,  I prepared an extremely sour candy, handed it to the person in front of my lens, and captured the moment they lost control of their facial expressions.


这是我举起宝丽来对于人类进行的一次简单探索。

我希望能够用宝丽来抓住生活中的决定性瞬间,我一直觉得人类大脑对于身体的控制非常有意思,一个成年人极少数情况下才会在别人面前失去控制,要怎么样才能让人无法控制自己呢?我准备了一颗极酸的糖,递给人类,并捕捉他们失去表情管理的那一刻。
这是一系列非常轻松快乐的拍摄,我使用宝丽来作为媒介,努⼒捕捉、叙述和记录成年人失去控制的那一瞬间。这个项目最初是为测试宝丽来新相机i-2而萌生的简短有趣的拍摄想法,最后成为了我长期拍摄的一个项目,它记录了我作为摄影师希望使用宝丽来为工具,近乎反叛地剥离人类的社会身份,抓住近乎童真的人类原始反应。
