As background in Landscape Architecture for 5-year undergraduate study, I look a city in a different way. In my architectural photographs, other adjunctive elements, such as people, light and vegetation, play a significant role. I always pay attention to the relationship between structures and these elements, that is they influence each other; belong to each other. Without these elements, a city is incomplete. Through my lens, I want to capture the mute dialogue between architecture and these elements, which can go beyond the limit of spoken language, as well as the space and temporarily.
greeting the city
through the distance
left unspoken
dialogue between us...
" There are two people in every photograph: the photographer and the viewer." - Ansel Adams
