An Uninvited Guest / Zixuan Lai / 2018 / Photography
Inspiration
Wherever I’m at home or on the street, whenever I’m walking, talking, or eating, and whoever I’m with or by myself, there’s always an uninvited and unexpected guest rooted in my life: my phone. That became so normal that my phone almost grows on me.
But is it really good to adhere to an electronic device anytime we are awake? Cell phones, those that are designed to connect ourselves to the wide world why at last block us from elsewhere?
Explanation
This project is meant to take a look at the human-machine situation we are having.
Standing with two bare feet should be a symmetrical image representing a dependable status in both the natural and aesthetic level.
However, the phone breaks the symmetry by intruding this balanced situation and reminds of its existence.
