About Glitters Exhibition Photography Series
Glitters is a photography series that studies the surface of sequin fabric. The series treats an ordinary functional material as a medium for abstract painting. Human contact changes the sequins in an irreversible way, and each mark is recorded by the camera. The images move from macro to micro views to explore material, texture, color and light. Chance, lighting and intuition guide the experimental approach. The photographs were taken with a digital camera and processed with digital software. Prints are made in a limited edition on fine art paper and plexiglass in four sizes.

- Operation Flow
- This series aims to explore the boundary and diversity of material and texture in the perspective from macro to micro by infusing outside emotional influence on the ordinary functional object. It is done with an experiment approach with uncertainty like fabric, color, lighting and intuition.
- Research
- After year of research between photography and philosophy, I perceive photography as a manifestation of the subconscious and the externalisation of inner emotions in the exploration of the 3-dimensional world with my intuitive flash of mind in the sense of aesthetics and imaginary.
We are the creators of our own universe. By standing in the perspective of an observer without holding any definition of the world, the selflessness allows you to see the world with infinite points and possibilities. Each work is uniquely reflecting how my current emotions, frequency and consciousness connecting to the 3-dimension world at specific point of time. They are the language of my soul. - Inspiration
- Inspiration came from one day I come across curtains which made by sequin fabric. I was captivated by its sparkling and irreversible nature with the spotlight. With human influence, it becomes a beautiful abstract painting.
