21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
No title

It's named untitled because I don't want to limit the meaning of this kind of image, even if it's taken by me, but it becomes an image, it's not dictated by me, it has such a rich and deep meaning. Of course, in terms of images, we can think of some things, such as the liberation of women, such as the breakthrough of the self, but as I said above, even in the content of feminism and gender, I do not want to see it as some kind of explanation of gender culture and discourse, when we take a certain perspective of research, cultural criticism or theoretical construction is appropriate. The problem is that if we only look at life from this perspective, it becomes narrow and distorted. The reason why the name is untitled is to jump out of the existing frame of reference and a certain preset boundary, to accommodate, to understand, to think, to practice. I think this is the foundation of all art and the study of thought.
