Part two:Walking through the light


Walking through the light

It is in the process of journey. These series of photographs are about transportation from a place to another place. And they are arranged at interval between one station to another.



2-1 The platform:09:21:56

The broadcaster announces the destination of the various trains and their platform number. The echo of broadcast sounds around the structure of roof from top to the bottom, from the gate to the end of platform. The sound makes visual perception more sensitive. The eyes see the detail of architecture through the zoom lens. That is the reflection of light surround the environment.


2-2 The window:10:15:23

The window in this picture is the barrier between outside and inside. One can see through the window but not feel the wind passing on the face, and the heat of sunlight. The glass of window reflects the light of inside; however, it implies that the window is also kind of shelter for the interior space. It is comfortable to sit inside of train to enjoy the scenery.


2-3 The mirror:10:53:57
It is interesting to observe the reflection of the bus driver in the windscreen mirror. Normally, it is hard to see the front view when sitting behind the driver. In this standing position, it can be seen that the end of this road is where bus has to turn left. The representation of this photo also looks like looking at the driver’s face in front of the bus; however, it is the reflection image through the light path into the mirror.

2-4 The speed:11:33:17

The image is blurred because of the speed of movement. It is easy to identify that the bus was traveling at a fast speed when this picture was taken. The distance of space between the viewer and scenery in the environment can also be measure by the speed. This photograph depicts speed of space.



2-5 Implicit dimensions of image (Part 1):12:02:18

The eyes look at the environment through the reflection of image. This reflection of image is presented on the dome. What interesting is due to the form of object, the image extends the dimension more than would be presented on the flat of surface.


2-6 Implicit dimensions of image (Part 2):12:38:24

The feature of this picture is similar above one. The view of scenery is presented by the reflection. However, this image is clearer than the previous one because of the material of surface.
