Exploration (2018)

This series of self-portraits focus on exploring the inner world using the projection mapping technology.

At the beginning of the project, the intent of integrating photography and projection was to translate a 2D plane surface into a 3D space. As Li was making the photographs in the dark studio, he found it was no longer an ordinary shooting but a journey of exploring his inner world just like a meditation. In the dark room where he was isolated from the outer world, time and space gradually became ambiguous.  At that time, he could truly  delve into the complexities and depths of  his inner world and see the joys and struggles, futures and pasts, in fragments and as a whole.

•This use live projection pushes the boundary of digital photography, which producing photographs that film camera cannot reproduce.
