Birds
Photography
2022
Some of the birds in this piece were captured through photography, while others were digitally added, blurring the line between reality and artificiality. This work delves into the philosophical question, "What is real?"—a recurring theme in my attempts to create photography-based works.
The birds, as subjects, symbolize the freedom and vitality of nature, while the buildings represent human creativity and dominance over space. This photograph was taken after a social activity, during a moment of looking up at the sky. The dynamic movement of the birds contrasts sharply with the static, structured presence of the buildings. This juxtaposition reflects the relationship between freedom and control, while also highlighting the inherent tensions of modern life.
