01 UNTITLED
series of film photos
THIS SERIES OF PHOTOGRAPHS STARTED AS AN ATTEMPT TO CAPTURE NATURE, PEOPLE, MOMENTS, AND ROUTINES AROUND ME, AND ENDED UP AS A RECORD OF EXPLORING THE UNFAMILIAR AND FASCINATING WORLD BY MYSELF, EMBRACING LONELINESS (WHICH IS VERY DIFFERENT WHEN YOU MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY), SOMETIMES FEELING LIKE A LOST KID WITH A FILM CAMERA.
