The changing light of day creates various expressive scenes in surroundings, and these come and go with time. As an artist, I try to discover and capture the moments and aspects which light, reflection, shadow and shade produce in my immediate environment. Being in my studio, which is mostly my sunny kitchen, I am fascinated by hidden spectacles people don’t normally notice. When I pay attention, I could find that there exists another phase of reality out there. The title of this series, “Opticks” is named after a book written by English scientist Isaac Newton. The book is about optics and nature of light, and a summarization of his study. The reason why I took the title is because I find similarity between his and my works. In a different time and place, I believe that both of us expressed the same subject, “the essence of light.” Using photography as medium allows me the opportunity to make sure what I see and what is important to me. While living in three-dimensional space, we tend to forget that our physical sight is two-dimensional. Reminding me of the fact, photography gives me another way of seeing the world
