‘Soviet Ghosts’ is a personal experimental work, I intended to express the beauty hidden in the broken and decayed.
This work is inspired by British photographer Rebecca Litchfield's collection of photographs of the same name < Soviet Ghosts >, (published in 2013, she sensitively and beautifully records many abandoned locations within 13 countries which were once part of the Soviet Union or occupied territories). I also referenced a large number of images of the remains of the former Soviet Union from the internet.
During the creative process I tried to construct and restore the strong sense of realistic representation that was vivid in the photography. At the same time I reorganize the subject and scene and integrate this with my own creativity and understanding in light and shadow and composition. Trying to find a balance point that satisfies myself between hyper-realism and artistic stylization is also a challenge.
* The content (including text, geographical names and coordinates) presented in this work are all creative endeavours and not accurcy and do not represent any political positions.
‘Soviet Ghosts’是一项个人实验作品，意图表现存在于残破与衰败中蕴藏的美感。
本作品灵感来源于英国摄影师Rebecca Litchfield的同名摄影集<Soviet Ghosts> (出版于2013年，她敏锐而精美地记录了散落在曾经属于苏联或被占领的13个国家/地区的废弃地点)， 此外我还参考了大量互联网上前苏联遗址遗迹影像资料。
我尝试在创作过程中构建并复原摄影作品中散发出的强烈纪实感，同时对被摄物与场景进行重新组合，在光影及构图等方面融入自己的创意与理解。试图在超写实与艺术风格化之间找到一个让自己满意的平衡点也是创作过程中所遇到的挑战。
